[Years ago I registered as a Republican solely to support a conservative primary candidate here in NJ (we have closed primaries). ]
This is precisely why I do so also. I give nothing to any national GOP campaign committee.
The GOPe is fine with that though because they are the party of corporate lobbyists and big money donors. They haven’t given a damn about the common GOP constituent in decades.
SO it seems the message is stay registered for the primary voice, but no financial involvement? Makes sense...
