Good time for my questions:
Are the Amish people politically active? In that are they known to be of one political party or another? If they are voters who do they vote for usually?

Are the Amish people politically active?Heck, I don't know.
AmishDude is the only one that I know that is.
Maybe he can answer your other questions.

Are the Amish people politically active? At times. They won a Supreme Court case protecting their right to remove children from schools after grade 8.

Are the Amish people politically active? No. Most simply put, Amish believe that institutions were either ordained by God or they were not; there is no middle road. The family and church were ordained by God; government was not.

They don't vote. They do advocate obeying the laws of
man when they do not violate the laws of God. However,
this orange triangle issue seems very strange. God
created the color orange. God created the triangle. The
orange triangle isn't being used as a "decoration" as much
as their "hex" signs on barns. Though I agree with the
Amish on many things, this is one area where it appears
to me that they are straining at a gnat and swallowing a
camel.
