I’m mainly a Voyager fan these days, and it’s amazing how political many of the cast have become. Jeri Ryan (Seven of Nine) admits she was completely nonpolitical, on Twitter and in real life, until Trump was elected. Now she posts so many political tweets I can’t keep up. Tim Russ (Tuvok) rarely posted anything, political or not; now he posts often about politics, including a video of him joining a BLM protest on the streets of LA. Kate Mulgrew (Captain Janeway) and Robert Picardo (The Doctor) also post about politics often.
Robert Duncan McNeill (Tom Paris) and his girlfriend live in Georgia, and canvassed for Stacey Abrams in 2018.
Beware of Roxann Dawson (B’Elanna Torres), though. She’s a Trump supporter. 🙁
Pete Buttigieg is a card-carrying Trekkie, so I’m not surprised he’s involved in this event.
