47. I voted for Reagan the second time

Mon Jan 11, 2021, 03:19 AM

Jan 2021

I was religious in my late teens and 20's and voted for Carter because he was born again and then Reagan because my church at that point said to and I was totally brainwashed.

After that democrat rest of life except one time a state office because wife was a democrat he was republican and I naively thought he would make nice. Learned my lesson. That was in 90's.
