Because they find voting Democrat to be more distasteful, for whatever reason. I have to imagine the people who swing the swing states have to be a really interesting mix of uninformed and having close relationships with people from both major parties. Like they only know the ideas at super high levels, basically just the slogans and spokespeople. It’s all vibes.
Or I could be way off, I dunno. World’s a wacky place
In my state, you can be independent and vote for either.
But yeah, I voted in the Republican primary this time, to vote against Trump, even though I would have wanted Nikki to lose, but would rather risk that than Trump.

You can only vote in the primarys if you are registered with the party having the primary.
They probably want to keep being able to vote within the Republican party.

Never even occurred to me it would be state specific. But now that you said it, it’s obvious. Thanks
That’s something a swing voter might be likely to do, but it’s not a cause of being a swing voter.
I’m not understanding. Why would a swing voter stay in one party?
