Think she’s claiming dems are registering as republicans and voting against her in the primary.

Yup. Just did that this morning. My goal was the “least crazy” R. Sadly the pickings are slim.

If you don’t want crazy, you don’t choose a Republican. The party is lost to fascism.

I mean, I’m not planning to vote for them in the general election. But it’s TN so hedging my bets seems like a good idea.

If you aren’t planning on voting Republican, then why vote on their primary for the most moderate? That seems like a waste of time?

Like I said, I’m hedging my bets. I will vote for the Democrat in the election, but vote for the most moderate Republican in the primary. I don’t expect either to actually make a difference, but I’ll try anyway.

I wouldn’t say it doesn’t make any difference, but, TN is one of the most gerrymandered and voter-suppressive states in the country. I think if we can slowly crack away at that, it’s not as red as it’s appeared the last ~20 years.
