All In The Family
Archie: If he even bothered to vote, Virgil Goode Jr. Would have supported Perry and maybe Gingrich in the Republican primaries, but can't see Archie supporting any other prominent Republican in the 2012 race, for the following reasons:
  • Romney - Mormon
  • Huntsman - Mormon
  • Cain - Black
  • Bachmann - Woman
  • Santorum - Catholic of Italian descent
  • Paul - The fact that Paul supports decriminalizing drugs and bringing the troops home, without taking his other policies into account, is enough to put Archie off supporting him.
Edith - Would make her mind up after watching the debates.
Gloria - Obama or Green Party
Mike - Obama or Green Party, I can see Mike in particular angry enough at Obama's performance to make a protest vote.
George - Would support Cain in the primaries, but settle for Romney in the election. Wouldn't be fond of having a "zebra" in the White House.
Louise - Not sure, might be like Edith and watch the debates first.
Lionel - Obama or Green Party
Frank - Obama
Irene - Obama
Barney - Romney

Three's Company
Jack - Obama or Johnson
Janet - Obama
Chrissy - Obama
Cindy - Romney
Terri - Depends on who she thinks has the better health policy.
Mr. Roper - Romney
Mrs. Roper - Might tell Mr. Roper she's voting Romney, but make up her own mind.
Mr. Furley - Romney
Lana - Whoever she fancied more
Larry - Johnson, so his used car dealership didn't get seized.
Mr. Angelino - Romney

Cheers & Frasier
Sam - Can't see him voting to be honest.
Diane - Obama
Coach - Romney maybe? I can see him being more of a Republican than a Democrat though.
Carla - Obama, might vote Republican in a good year for them.
Norm - Whoever cuts taxes on alcohol, so out of the current crop of candidates, Johnson.
Cliff - Romney, especially with Romney hailing from Massachusetts.
Frasier - Obama
Woody - Whoever his folks back in Hanover are voting for.
Lilith - Obama
Gary - Whoever has a more favourable opinion, just to rub it in Sam's face
Rebecca - Bachmann in the primary, Romney in the election.
Kelly - Romney
Robin - Romney
Martin - Cain, Perry or Gingrich in the primary, Romney in the election.
Niles - Obama
Roz - Not sure, Obama maybe?
Daphne - Obama, I can see her being a Labour or Lib Dem voter back in the UK too.
Bulldog - Romney
Kenny - Romney
Gil - Maybe Romney?
Noel - Whoever likes Star Trek more.

Married... with Children
Al - See Norm in my Cheers & Frasier entry.
Peggy - Obama, in hope for more welfare money that she can spend on home shopping and bon-bons.
Kelly - Whoever looked better to her
Bud - Obama
Steve - Swing voter
Marcy - Romney
Jefferson - See Peggy.
Griff - Cain in the primary, Romney in the election.
Peggy's relatives in Wanker County - Whoever didn't bother them.
Rest of the No Ma'am group - Anyone that isn't Bachmann

Family Ties
Steve & Elyse - Obama or Green Party, much like Mike and Gloria from All in the Family, I can see them being angry enough with the Obama administration to do a protest vote. However, the Keatons live in swinging Ohio, not safe Democratic New York. As a result, Steve and Elyse might vote Obama just to keep the Republicans out.
Alex - Romney, although he would have supported Cain or Paul in the primaries.
Mallory - Whoever she thought was the best looking, much like Kelly from Married... with Children. Can see her preferring a Republican though.
Jen - Obama
Andy - Same as Alex, if his young self is an indication of what he'll be like as an adult.
Skippy - Whoever Mallory is voting for.

Love Thy Neighbour (UK show)
Eddie - BNP, having been expelled from the Labour party in the 1990s.
Joan - Labour
Bill - Conservative
Barbie - Conservative or Lib Dem
Arthur - Conservative or UKIP
Jacko - Labour
Nobby - Labour

Dad's Army (UK show)
Capt. Mainwairing - UKIP, Conservative if they had the right candidate
Sgt. Wilson - Conservative
Lance Cpl. Jones - Labour
Pvt. Frazer - Labour
Pvt. Walker - Most likely wouldn't vote, if he did, UK Pirate Party.
Pvt.  Godfrey - Conservative
Pvt. Pike - Lib Dem or Conservative
ARP Warden Hodges - Conservative
Mrs. Pike - Lib Dem
Mrs. Fox - Labour

Since most of the King of the Hill is fairly conservative, lets do the Republican Primary

Hank Hill: Mitt Romney
Peggy: Rick Santorum
Bobby: Ron Paul
Luanne: Michelle Bachmann
Dale: Ron Paul
Boomhauer: Mitt Romney
Bill: Newt Gingrich
Cotton: Rick Santorum
Buck Strickland: Rick Perry or Herman Cain


Mr. Libertarian, I think Hank would support Perry, not Romney in the Republican primary. Also, Dale wouldn't vote, as he drives to Mexico on election day. If he did vote, yes, he would be a Paul supporter.

I'm not crazy about SpongeBob, but here's my list for those characters:

SpongeBob: Obama.
Patrick: Obama.
Sandy: Romney, Perry in the primary (since she's from Texas).
Squidward: Obama in a heartbeat (or himself as a write-in.)
Mr. Krabs: Romney, probably Paul or Cain in the primary (and hands down for Ross Perot in '92.)
Pearl: Too young, but Obama if she were old enough.
Plankton: would try to overthrow the government and make himself dictator.  Otherwise, Obama (against competition in private business) or himself as as a write-in.
MermaidMan and BarnacleBoy (RIP Ernest Borgnine): Romney on both counts, to fight crime/EEEEE-VILLLL!

Oldiesfreak1854, I think Plankton would support Paul, then Johnson, as they're the only ones, especially Paul, that wouldn't shut the Chum Bucket down.

Something says me that Dale from the KOTH would vote for Goode or some other minor right-winger in the general election.

Spot on, whether he would vote for Goode or Johnson is the question though. As I pointed out earlier though, Dale drives down to Mexico on election day.

I'd also like to add the voting habits of another couple of TV shows:

It Ain't Half Hot Mum (UK show)

Bearer Rangi Ram: Labour
Sgt. Major Tudor Brynne "Shut Up" Williams: BNP or Plaid Cymru
Bombardier Solomons: Labour Conservative (given their stronger support for Israel)
Gunner/Bombardier "Gloria" Beaumont: Labour
Gunner Harold "Lofty" Sugden: Labour
Colonel Charles Reynolds: Conservative or UKIP
Captain Jonathan Ashwood: Conservative
Gunner Nigel "Parky" Parkins: Conservative
Gunner Jonathan "La-di-da" Graham: Liberal Democrat
Gunner "Atlas" Mackintosh: SNP
Char Wallah Mohammed: Labour
Punkah Wallah Rumzan: Labour
Gunner "Nosher" Evans: Conservative
Gunner "Nobby" Clark: Whoever he could relate to the most.

Night Court

Harry: Obama
Lana: Obama
Billie: Obama
Christine: Obama
Dan: Johnson
Liz: Obama? She wasn't on the show long enough to tell.
Mack: Cain in the primary, Romney in the election.
Bull: Whoever he could relate to the most.
Selma: Johnson or Goode
Flo: Romney
Roz: Obama

Homer Simpson - Wait, so there's another Homer Simpson on the show? Tongue Romney, as the clip showed.
Marge Simpson - She's stated that she voted for Carter twice, and is a big supporter of the Democratic Governor of the state that Springfield is in. So Obama.
Bart Simpson - Rebellious and sometimes a conspiracy theorist. Either Gary Johnson or Jeff Boss.
Lisa Simpson - Staunch environmentalist, gay rights activist and pacifistic. Probably Jill Stein.
Maggie Simpson - Very fond of guns, it seems. Virgil Goode?
Grandpa Simpson - Has bashed the Democrats numerous times on the show. Romney.
Nelson - Johnson
Comic book guy - Johnson
Ned Flanders - Write-in: Bachmann
Todd Flanders - Him and his brother are strongly implied to be gay in a futuristic episode. Probably Obama.
Rod Flanders - See above.
Chief Wiggum - Romney
Ralph Wiggum - Boss
Monty Burns - Romney (most obvious one yet!).
Mr. Smithers - Would tell Mr. Burns that he's a Romney supporter, but would in fact vote for Obama.

Duffman - Romney
Dr. Nick Riveria - Johnson
Edna Krabappel - Obama

Rollo: Obama
Grady: Romney
Bubba: Romney
Aunt Esther: Romney
Julio: Obama
Ah Chew: Obama

Growing Pains

Jason: Obama, would have voted for Reagan in 1984 though and Republican in Congressional/Senatorial races until sometime in the 1990s.
Maggie: Obama, although a bit more liberal than Jason regarding her voting history.
Mike: Obama/write-in himself if he had the same mindset he had on the show, would lean Romney/Republican nowadays.
Carol: Obama, would find Republicans to be way too anti-intellectual nowadays.
Ben: Seems to be a bit of an outcast in the later years and in the reunion movies, most likely independent/third party, or write-in himself.
Chrissy: Hard to tell, considering she was only 7 when Growing Pains ended in 1992. Given what she was like in the reunion movies though, Obama.
Kate: Romney
Julie: Write in Mike or herself
Boner: Write-in Mike
Eddie: Write-in Mike
Stinky Sullivan: Write-in Ben
Dwight: Obama
Principal DeWitt: Romney

The Fudge series by Judy Blume - I'll do the elections closest to the four Fudge books (1972, 1980, 1988 and 2000):

Hatcher Family
Warren - Advertising executive, likely conservative. Nixon/Reagan/Bush/Bush
Anne - A fairly traditional housewife, who later becomes a dental assistant. Nixon/Reagan/Bush/Gore
Peter - While he's only 9-12 years old in the series, he supports more public transportation in NYC, and is also concerned about air pollution. Doesn't seem to be anti-establishment or rebellious though. McGovern/Anderson/Bush/Gore
Fudge - Loves money, and although he tampers with private property, significantly Peter's, in the earlier books, this is because of his youth. Purely going from his love of money: Hospers/Reagan/Paul/Bush
Tootsie - Only two years old in the final book, it's very hard to tell (and I haven't read the books with Tootsie in them in years), so I won't analyze Tootsie.
Grandma Muriel - Seems like a moderate to me, so Nixon/Anderson/Bush/Gore
Cousin Howie - Hawaii park ranger, who's not a fan of TV, junk food, school and pop music to name a few things. McGovern/Mondale/Dukakis/Nader
Cousin Eudora - Voice of reason of the "Howie Hatchers", and a bit more conservative than her husband. McGovern/Anderson/Dukakis/Gore
Flora and Fauna - Spolied tween girls, possibly apolitical.
Mini-Farley - Probably apolitical, and not enough is mentioned to give him a leaning.

Other characters
Jimmy Fargo - Son of an actor-turned-artist, most likely left-leaning.McGovern/Anderson/Dukakis/Gore
Sheila Tubman - Would probably go against Peter just to spite him. Nixon/Reagan/Dukakis/Gore
Libby Tubman - Prides herself as being sophisticated, so perhaps a conservative for the most part, with the exception of 1964-style elections. Nixon/Reagan/Bush/Bush
Mr. and Mrs. Tubman - Seem like stereotypical American parents to me. Nixon/Reagan/Bush/Gore
Frank Fargo - Actor turned artist who lives in SoHo? Definitely a progressive. McGovern/Mondale/Dukakis/Nader
Henry Bevelheimer - Intelligent man, would be put off by anti-intellectualism. Hospers/Anderson/Bush/Gore

Might update this later with some of the other characters, namely the Princeton characters in Superfudge.

Tinky-Winky - Homosexual, probably Labour; but  tempted by Cameron's modernisation of the Tories.

Dipsy - Labour (ethnic minority)

La-La - Lib Dems turned Greens (likes animals)

Po - Red Tory

The Hoover - Conservative, cleans up everyone's mess

That made me crack up!

Harry Potter:

(Note: For the sake of simplicity, the parties referred to are the Muggle parties' wizarding equivalents).

Harry: Liberal Democrat
Weasleys: Blue-collar Labourites
Hermione: Labour
Malfoys: Upper-class Tories
Voldemort: BNP
Dumbledore: Liberal when they were still strong, eventually switched to Labour
Luna Lovegood: Monster Raving Loony
Blacks (excluding Sirius): Thatcherite Tories, think Enoch Powell was pretty cool

Will add more as I think of them...

Do you think the Dursleys would still be Tories, or do you think they would have joined the UKIP bandwagon?

In the run up to Australia Day, here's Kingswood Country, originally on Australian TV from 1980-84:

Ted Bullpitt - A working class employee at a putty factory, generally Liberal, although would have supported One Nation in 1998 (this being said, Ted was more the type to dislike anyone and anything, rather than an Archie Bunker or Alf Garnett type).  I think Ted would have voted for Katter's Australian Party in 2013, to "bring back the Kingswood".
Thelma Bullpitt - Ted's wife, I'd say a swing voter, probably sneakily (as in not telling Ted) supported Labor in 1972, when Whitlam came into power.
Greta Bertolucci (nee Bullpitt) - Ted & Thelma's daughter, most likely Labor, both at the time and now, given her progressivism.
Craig Bullpitt - Ted & Thelma's son, a medical student, probably Labor at the time, and the Democrats in the Senate. May be a Greens voter now.
Bruno Bertolucci - Greta's husband, Labor , for similar reasons to his wife, and also because of his ethnicity (Italian) and religion (Catholicism).
Bob Bullpitt - Ted's brother, a used car salesman from Brisbane, most likely voted Liberal, This being said, Bob probably voted for the Nationals at the state level in the 1980s, and was probably tempted by Palmer United in 2013.
Merle Bullpitt - Bob's upwardly mobile wife, I'd think she'd be straight-ticket Liberal at both federal and state levels.

All in the Family

Archie: TRUMP (Pretty Obvious)
Edith: Clinton (Seems like it, moderate, religious, liked Carter.)
Gloria: Clinton  (A Woman, feminist, liberal but not that much, seems like it.)
Micheal: Sanders (Male, Egotistical, hippie, has anti-woman prejudices, will make anti-Hillary slurs, vote for green and never for Hillary.)
Stephanie: Sanders (Jewish, as a child seemed to have liberal leanings.)

Expanding with more All In The Family characters:

George Jefferson - Trump (like Archie, favours keeping Latinos out)
Louise Jefferson - Probably Clinton.
Lionel Jefferson - Clinton or Sanders (more open to Clinton than the Meathead)
Frank Lorenzo - Clinton
Irene Lorenzo - Clinton
Barney Hefner - Trump (didn't seem to be as much of a bigot as Archie though, so maybe Cruz?)
Maude Findlay - Clinton (obviously)

Married... with Children (2016 edition)

Al - Obviously not Clinton, wouldn't trust Trump, would see him as too elitist (plus Al was only xenophobic to the French), and doesn't really care for politics, aside from when his beer tax is raised, his favourite TV show is cancelled, or his supply of pornography and strippers is threatened. If he did vote, Gary Johnson.
Peggy - Clinton, in hope for more welfare money that she can spend on home shopping and bon-bons. This is, if she could be bothered to vote.
Kelly - Probably wouldn't vote.
Bud - Clinton (would be put off by Trump's insults/mannerisms)
Steve - Most likely Clinton (would be a swing voter in previous elections)
Marcy - Clinton (particularly for feminist reasons)
Jefferson - Clinton (at least he'd say that when Marcy's around...)
Griff - Johnson?
Peggy's relatives in Wanker County - Either Trump or Johnson
Rest of the NO MA'AM group (Ike, Officer Dan, and Bob Rooney) - Probably Johnson (if they voted), for similar reasons to Al (don't want a feminist woman as President, and they don't trust Trump)
Gary (Al's boss) - Possibly Trump (wealthy businesswoman just outside the Forbes 400)
Miranda (TV reporter) - Clinton

To update this, in the wake of the passing of Ross Higgins (Ted Bullpitt), having re-watched a good number of episodes, while Ted was conservative, and had a profound dislike of Whitlam, Hawke, and Al Grassby, he was very anti-politician in general (he disses then-PM Fraser and then Treasurer John Howard in numerous episodes). In 2016, he'd probably vote One Nation again.

Peggy: Biden

Marcy: Biden, but still raging that Clinton lost 2016.

Alf - Brexit Party, UKIP, BNP, or writes Tommy Robinson on the ballot, depending on where he lives. There is NO WAY Alf Garnett would vote for a Tory government with the likes of Sajid Javid or Priti Patel in it.
Else - Depends on how she feels about the EU - Tory maybe?
Rita - Labour (can see her voting Remain)
Mike - Green or Labour (he'd want to reform the EU to make it more socialist, but would favour leaving the EU in its current form)
