The only D that gets my vote is for NC Secretary of State. She and her office do a damn good job. She wasn’t on the ballot this time.

This time was a straight ballot.

I voted for some libertarians, and I voted for the Dem state rep in my area, cause the Republican that is getting elected is a vile human.

I voted some libertarian and a couple write ins. It won’t matter because the Rs will win those races. But they were terrible Rs.

I made it a point to not vote for either major party, and if I had no choice I voted against the incumbent.

Did not vote D at all.

Straight R, except for 1 where the incumbent was an unopposed D...wrote in "NO DIMS".

Should have wrote in Let's Go Brandon.

i tend to vote L vs republicans when the republicans are very shady or RINOy. Texas AG has a ton of legal issues currently and the L was more appealing. i appreciate a lot of the things he does from a MAGA perspective, but i try to avoid voting for somebody if i know they're in an active investigation or affair going on.

Abbott has some issues with how he handled COVID and I'm not a giant fan of Texas' abortion law and how it shaped up, but i'd give him a solid B+ and earned my vote.

in Texas, i had about 7 options to vote L instead of R and took 2 of them. My last D vote was Chet Edwards.

I voted straight red with the exception of one liberatarian--me. There was a Democrat running unopposed for a state representative position so I wrote in for myself.

I voted straight ticket but pro tip: I do not color in the one straight ticket block, I fill out each block separately. Reason being, if tabulator machine misreads my straight ticket mark I lose out on all candidates. By filling in each block I increase my odds to get most of my picks in case of machine reading problems

Straight R except I voted for whoever the Libertarian candidate was instead of that piece of shite Rat-burger for Sec. Of State here in GA.

I voted all Republican except for lieutenant governor. I dislike Dan Patrick intensely, so I voted for the libertarian.

I usually vote for libertarians for the Court of Criminal Appeals, but they did not run anyone this time.

The ballot where I voted made you fill in each square separately. It wasn't a straight down the line ballot. It looked more like a restaurant menu than a ballot.

I voted for a couple local independents. I can’t bring myself to vote for anyone dumb enough to put a D after their name.

Texas no longer allows straight party ticket voting.

But the only non-partisan issue was a bond election for roads.
