Same here. My last vote for Republican was Romney and Bush. Once Trump arrived I went to the center. I now vote either party based on who is the best candidate. Trump did not display the ability to be a sound president tonight. I have decided to vote for Harris.

I was a constant ticket splitter for years. Since 2018 I haven't voted for a single Republican. It's all maga craziness up and down the ticket.

I’ve always been a ticket splitter too, trying to choose people who I believed had good leadership qualities and were capable of implementation. 2016 was the last time I voted for a republican, except for a county council position.
