Snape is right wing he is too logical for the lefts. He shuns them.

The staunch Left Hagrid. He is the one most likely to believe his 
voice is heard by left and not by right.

MacGonagall is a right voter. I doubt she'd change it without good 
reason, but she might vote left on a principle. Otherwise she is 
strictly traditional establishment.

Malfoy is a swinging voter usually more gained by voting right. But 
it all depends on who he owns full stop.

Dumbledore is a swinging voter he values choice far too much to let 
an opportunity to deliberate one get away from him.

Lupin would be left, if he was much of a voter, which I doubt he is. 
Politics is too messy for Remus. I think he may be the one most 
likely to always vote for independent standers.


Thats my few thoughts.
