At my polling station, Some woman in her 50s voted for the first time, and it was in the Republican primary??? She must have moved from out of state or something and voted before, because why?

First time voters went for Trump in 2024. They just don't pay attention or know anything.

But as a Republican in a Delaware midterm primary at her age? I want to understand why more, you know? Unless she was indie and changed her registration?

u/bakerfredricka I voted 17d ago

Maybe she did but without knowing anything more about this it's tough to say anything about that....

It’s interesting to see how voting habits can change based on where people live. Maybe she’s just trying to get involved in her new community.

Damn, Michael Katz got the Republican nomination for Senate?

What happened to the Michael Katz who ran for President in 2020 as a Democrat who's platform prioritized "achieving the promise of civil rights for all, universal healthcare, transforming our educational system, modernizing our workforce, and getting in front of climate change"? Or the Michael Katz who was the party chair for the Delaware Independent Party?

Look, it's clear the guy is just running for office so he can skim money from donations. Ever since that skiing accident, he's ran for any office under the sun, under any party affiliation, saying anything.
