Iowa’s Democratic Senate candidate, state Rep. Josh Turek, said he voted for three Republicans when he cast his ballot this Election Day.
The two named Republicans were both county level admin spots, and one unnamed person…
Lots of people who won’t ever vote D really want to divide the party tho.
Most all our local offices don’t list a party affiliation, so unless by some chance I know anything about the name I can’t reasonably give a yes or no, so I’ll just leave it blank to avoid endorsing a potentially terrible person.
I split my ticket. Though that was more because of necessity. There were 2 county level offices where Republicans ran unopposed. I left those blank. And several others where Democrats didn’t bother to run anyone. In those I voted against the Republicans for the “independent”. Which is more reasonable for county level.
In an unopposed situation, I wouldn’t crucify someone for just filling in the dot as its ultimately meaningless. But if there were anyone else other than a Republican to vote for, it’s still a bad look.
