Voted to legalize some kind of sports betting thing. No big line.
I've made the same vow. I did vote for Independent Angus King since he votes with the Ds. The Dem candidate for Senate was a throw-away and had no chance.

What if your grandchild ran for political office as a Republican, or Donald Trump switched parties. I find never and forever are temporary lengths of time.

This wasn't directed at me but I would vote D if any relative ran as a R. If Trump switched parties.....first I would laugh.....and then I would vote for any D that challenged him.
