A new class of voter is waiting to shake up our politics. In 2016, we learned about the crucial importance of “Obama-Trump” voters. Some estimates held that up to 13 percent of Trump’s voters in 2016 had voted for Obama in a previous election. This reflects the moodiness of swing voters, the changing composition of the two parties, and the continuities between the two very different men.
Notably, Obama and Trump both ran their campaigns as critics of NAFTA. Hillary Clinton lost about one out of every four Obama voters who were white men with only high-school education. Some analysts believed that Trump increased the number of Trump Democrats in the 2020 election, even as he activated an even larger coalition to vote against him. One of the characteristics of the Obama-Trump voter was an anti–status quo bias. These voters wanted fundamental change to America’s economic model or its ruling class.
While we are a long way from another party-reshaping presidential election, I would like to propose that there is another crossover voter type who is waiting to make noise: the Hillary-DeSantis voter.

Just like the Scott Adams 25% of any poll.
Hopelessly detached from reality, floating on the wind like that feather at the busstop.
The odor of garbage is strong in this NR screed...
If they support the Ukraine debacle, they are Hillary voters.
Now we take advice from National Review?
The RATS are done with Hillary.
They will never forgive her for spending 750M and loosing WI, MI and PA.
If they support Russia, they are Wagner group 50 cent posters.
That's your metric for picking our leaders... You want to call a friend? Tsk tsk. Vote for Mother Teresa then, she has no enemies, she is not born in USA, and she is dead. A perfect candidate for you, so is you are going to waste your vote, make statement
There's a not insignificant number of voters out there, low-info voters, who care little about politics, don't follow politics, don't participate in political discussion on-line. They care little about the issues or where a candidate stands on them.
They vote only because they believe it's their civic duty to do so, and when they vote they choose their candidate for the flimsiest, most superficial reasons. Maybe it's the guy they'd like to have a beer with? Maybe it's for the lady who reminds them of their grandma?
Who knows?
But their votes count just the same as yours and mine do.
Look at him in that picture. Apparently there is no limit to how far a man will humiliate himself to win public office.
“he gave them mail in ballots”
Again with this crap. Trump had nothing to do with mail in ballots. Only the states decide how their elections are run. Just give it a rest.
BTTT
It’s NR
Not worth reading even if it was fre
Agreed, my good FRiend.
I know people like this (post #27). Too many of them...
I’ve been interviewed by exit pollsters twice in 40 years of voting. Lied my butt of to them both times.
