For any office. County commissioner, mayor, state auditor, congress, etc.

I did in 2018. Not this year (partially just because there are fewer races on the ballot).

You're voting for Trump?

There were occasionally Republicans in local/county offices who I'd vote for, but at this point anyone who voluntarily associates with the Trump Party is no less rotten to the core than he is.

Good God no.

I have only voted for a Republican once in my life (for a state race) and I could never vote for another one until the stink of Donald Trump is gone. For federal races, unless things dramatically change, I am not sure I will ever vote for a Republican.

No. It's hard for me to imagine ever voting for a Republican. If I did, it would almost certainly be at the local level.

Nope. Closest will be voting UUP for state auditor since the Democrats didn't run a candidate. Will be writing in someone for state treasurer because not the Republican, not the Libertarian, and sure as hell not the constitution party candidate should get my vote.

I can’t vote, but if I could, I would vote straight D in Washington. The only statewide Republican up for election this year I would hypothetically vote for anywhere is Phil Scott. I also would vote Hall in MA-03 if I lived there to prevent Auchincloss from winning.

I don't have a party, but last Sunday I voted PD, which is pretty much my default, therefore no.

If I were American I doubt I could stomach the idea of ever voting straight-ticket.

uhhh well if you consider my party to be the Republicans (kinda a stretch these days) I'll be voting for Jorgensen for POTUS and whoever the Democrat is in my Congressional district. John Rose is garbage, just like Scott DesJarlais, Jim Cooper, and every other TN Representative.

idk about Senate. I kinda want to vote for Bradshaw just to stick it to the TN GOP but also I really don't share her values. Apparently Faparusi is running as an independent, might vote for him (as I had considered voting for him for Congress back when I lived in TN-04) but then again I might just end up voting for Hagerty out of sheer apathy.

Yes. Tim DeFoor, the GOP candidate for PA Auditor, is moderate and actually has experience in the field. His opponent is mainly running on national issues totally irrelevant to the Auditor's duties. I'd rather somebody who lays low and does their job in that position.

Only for a couple local races where no Democrats are running. I voted for a Republican Congressman in 2016. But those days are long gone.

Yes, for District Attorney in El Paso County, and whichever Republican state legislators are running in my area. Otherwise, I'm definitely voting Democratic for Senate and House, and I'm pretty confident that I will still be doing so for the Presidency as well.

I'm supporting Biden, but I vote in Illinois so it doesn't matter much anyway. I guess I'll vote for Mark Curran in the Senate race, though there's no way he's beating Dick Durbin. I think the House candidate is a QAnon truther, but Bobby Rush kind of sucks, so that one will be blank. Again, the district is something like D+25.

Which one? Illinois has a history of sending good Republicans to Congress. The Dirksen and Cannon congressional office buildings are both named after Illinois Republicans!

If I was voting in Utah, I might have considered voting for Spencer Cox.

But now, after attempts to rig the election and the SC hypocrisy, I doubt I will vote for any Republican for any office at any point during the 2020s at the very least.

No , though I will not be voting for Trump either or Perkins as I will be writing in Mitt Romney and Gordon Smith in those races.

     Possibly, if there happen to be any D vs. D races where I care about the outcome. Probably not.
