Every mayoral candidate was a registered “democrat “ here but you have to run as D to have a chance in a heavily black populated city like Alexandria, LA

Split ticket here, but mine is split every year. Some candidates are just more qualified for a particular office and there's usually a stray nutbar or two.

There was one local guy on my ballot is simply straight up nuts - like DePape looney, except on the right. Not a big race, and the Dem against him is actually reasonable.

I always vote the best of breed no matter what. Just because they are all republicans is just coincidence I guess

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.


If everyone did this, it’s how things would change, but they won’t.

Instead someone like Latoya Cantrell stays in power.

I voted for a couple of libertarians. Being a party nominee doesn’t automatically earn my vote.

Me.

There is a Republican in the Texas rep race for my district who was on the city council and pushed and voted to shut down businesses during Covid at threat of those business owners losing their business license.

He also voted with developers who wanted to put an eight story tall warehouse right across the street from, and directly adjacent to residential communities. There would have been hundreds of 18-wheelers in and out of there 24 hours a day.

frick.

That.

Guy.

That is the WRONG KIND OF REPUBLICAN to send to the state.

I voted for the Dem. First Dem I voted for in my entire life (except for Edwin Edwards against David Duke). I don't like the Dem, and I could have just not voted in that race. There wasn't another alternative, like a Libertarian, but I needed to send a message. He'll probably still win because there's an enormous amount of low-information voters who just don't pay attention. Anyway, I feel dirty for voting for a Dem, but I just could not give that piece of shite a vote.
