I identify as “conservative” NOT “republican”. The only reason I keep my GOP registration is to try to impact the primaries. (A lot of good that does me in Marxist CA!)
“I identify as “conservative” NOT “republican”. “
Yep, same here. Being a Conservative I’ve never thought of myself as an Independent. I consider an Independent to be someone of the mushy middle who sometimes votes Democrat and sometimes Republican. As a Conservative I’ve never considered the possibility of voting Democrat. My only two choices have been vote Republican or don’t vote. But, if establishment Republicans continue to diss Conservatives that may change. There very well be a Conservative party movement take place. Will it win? Nope. But, neither can Republicans win without Conservatives. So we shall see how this barn dance goes....
In CA couldn’t you do more damage registered as a Dem ... A Repub vote won’t count at all, maybe your vote would sabotage a Dem Primary?
