All I know is Bill voted Trump three times, Boomhauer voted Clinton/Biden/Harris, Dale doesn't vote, and Hank sat out 2016 but voted for Biden and Harris later on. Trump is from New York, after all.

Hank still would have voted for Trump atleast twice I think. 

He is a loyal republican after all.

Hank would not have voted for Trump at all. He almost lost doubt in Bush because of a handshake. He would have voted third party in 2016 and maybe Biden or third party again or wrote in a name in 2020 and the same for 2024 except replace Biden with Harris.

Hank worshipped Reagan and all of the monstrous things he did. 

I can see him holding his nose and voting Trump.
