‘The way they turned their backs kind of got me really upset’
Thousands of registered Republican voters have changed their affiliation following the Capitol riots on Jan. 6, according to multiple reports.
In the week following the riot, 4,600 GOP voters in Colorado, 6,000 in North Carolina and 10,000 in Pennsylvania switched parties, according to NPR. Data from the Arizona Secretary of State’s office informed ABC News Thursday that 7,500 Republicans in Arizona have changed their affiliation.
The majority of Republicans leaving the party reportedly changed their status to unaffiliated, according to the reports.
A Colorado Public Radio News analysis found that many Republicans said they left their party because they felt the GOP betrayed former President Donald Trump.
Here’s where the creation of a “Patriot – True Conservative” party would really cause trouble to the RINOs!
I have been very dissatisfied with the Republican Party for a long time. To much back stabbing. The Democrats’ are vicious and stick together. I read this article and made my choice. I am now unaffiliated. I renounced my Republican Party affiliation.
I’ve always been registered an Independent but voted Republican so no need to change. That said I hope Larry is listening. He seems to be one of the most out of touch never Trumper Republicans around. To think he might actually have a chance to become President is ludicrous and shows how arrogant he can be.
I do believe if the GOP gets onboard with Trump supporters they may actually start making a difference again.
I like Ron DeSantis and he is Governor of Florida doing all the right things. Certainly a role model. Given that Trump is down in Mar a Lago says alot about the two of them – wondering if they have met and talked about the future.
I plan on getting away from the party. Just haven’t had a chance to get to the election board . Don’t know if it can be done online
PATRIOT PARTY is coming baby !!!
I have been registered as an unaffiliated independent for quite some time… Helps to not get the party garbage….I don’t want to be associated with Bush Nazis like hoghead hogan…Will never vote for a Democrat, though…
