I imagine probably a handful of random KKK members voted for Hillary (there will always be a couple of outliers in any large group), but I don't see what difference that makes. Trump was literally endorsed by the Klan's official newspaper as well as by David Duke himself. This wasn't some random Klansmen voting their conscience — the Klan officially supported Trump and didn't mind having Carson as an ally (why would they? It allows them to say stuff like "How can we be so bad for black people if this black guy is on our side?").
