I remember when there were no Republicans elected in local or state politics..When the primaries were over, the dem candidate was assured of election(Yes I AM that old)
I voted for Eisenhower in my first Presidential election and helped elect the first Republican County Commissioner in Dallas County...It has been a long road..My mother voted for Reagan, her first Republican vote..I know about yellow dog democrats..Now we have broken glass Republicans!
Do you know how these terms came about and could you tell those of us that don't know? :)
I remember asking my mom and dad why we had 2 elections - since the dim who won the primary won in Nov.
