    Lois, Clark, and Jimmy would all likely go Bernie or Tulsi.

    I do not think Lois would support Bernie Sanders over a qualified female candidate.

    A valid point.

    Clark would certainly vote for the most idealist candidate regardless of their chance of victory or defeat.

    Kind of feels like the protagonist characters would back whichever candidate the writer of the story supported. There's not enough consistency in the characters from writer to writer. Not like any of the current candidates really has distinguished himself or herself from the pack.

    Clark and Jimmy would definitely be #YangGang. Everyone gets $1000 and Lex Luthor pays for it.

    Tulsi Gabbard is a qualified female candidate.

    Which one do you think Lois will vote for and what about Clark?

    Who do you think that is?

    From his upbringings, I actually see Clark as far more conservative than liberal. Yes, he is a journalist, but he is not the writer of op-Eds. He is less sensational in his journalistic endeavors as, say Hannity or Maddow. Lois, as a military kid, would more than likely focus on what may help the military. I don’t think she would be a Trump fan by no means, but I can’t see her backing Bernie or Warren, and I think she would see through Biden. It would be tough to pick who they would vote for. Clark might try to find the most conservative Democrat, but I think he would try to be as middle of the road as possible. I see him more libertarian than anything.

    I'd hope Lois' criteria for getting her vote wasn't determined first by the number of X chromosomes the candidate had. I can see it being a tie-breaker if we had two close possibilities, but not one of the main factors.

    I think Clark is an idealist and a scientist as much as he is a reporter or hero. I think he would vote Mayor Pete or Cory Booker. Plus the idea of investing in a small town mayor seems too perfect. He could play Pete Ross in the next movie. Lois, I think she votes for Elizabeth Warren, she has all the plans and is facing waves of pushback for the same things Lois probably faces. She might back Harris or Julian Castro too. Perry White would vote Joe Biden. Jimmy Olsen would probably back Beto or Bernie. I definitely see Steve Lombard voting for Trump.

    I would prefer NOT to know how ANY comic character leans....I hear enough BS on a daily basis when it comes to politics. Too many "agendas" and other things bleed over into our comics and tv shows as it is. I don't need to know who a fictional character would pull for, unless they are voting for/against Lex Luthor or some other FICTIONAL character.

    Clark wouldn't vote; he'd feel like he can't, except against Luthor.
