Sensible Republicans will not vote for Donald Trump again.

Last edited Tue Jul 28, 2020, 05:04 PM - Edit history (1)

Very few will vote Democratic. They will simply withhold their vote from Donald Trump.

Because they do not want to see what this country will look like with four more years of Donald Trump.

This will not be a huge number of Republican voters, perhaps 1 or 2%, but that could be a huge number in the grand scheme?

It will be more than just the "Lincoln Project" Repubs, that have left their Party and are likely to vote Democratic in the next election. These are suburban Moms and many older voters.

This bodes well for Joe Biden if Democrats don't find a way to scare away voters. Trump will be looking to use this fear to make the race more competitive.

but I am sure he has frightened many of them enough to make them sit this one out. The less-crazy among them recognize that a vote for Trump is a vote for their own death.

Trump will actually receive a higher share of the Republican vote this year. He lost 8% in 2016. Most polls have it at 7% or lower this time.
