I don’t know when I became a republican, but it was before I was old enough to vote. My first vote in a presidental race was in 1960, and I voted for Nixon, the first of my three votes for him.
My dad was a lifelong New Deal Democrat, God rest his soul. He died in 1999 and I’m pretty sure he is still voting the straight democratic ticket. I do believe, though, that he would not vote for Hillary if he could avoid it. Unfortunately, he may not be able to avoid it.
“Unfortunately, he may not be able to avoid it.”
LOL!
Did he live in Cook County, Illinois (Chicago)?
