Interesting thing happened in Vermont.
Apparently 16 year olds were allowed to vote. It was also an open primary so no restrictions on dems voting in the republican primary. Less than 28% of Vermont voters are Republican and 57% are registered democrats. Add in the youth vote and it is not to shocking Haley pulled in almost 50%.
Did not help matters that the RINO never Trumper governor cheered her, asked for republicans,democrats,and independants to vote for her in the primary.
Republican Gov. Phil Scott, who endorsed Haley in January, attended Sunday’s event and reiterated his support for the underdog. Introduced on stage by Rep. Ashley Bartley, R-Fairfax, Scott urged not just Republicans, but also independents and Democrats to vote for Haley on Tuesday, emphasizing the need to prevent a second Trump term.
“If you want to help stop Donald Trump, please, please show up on Tuesday, take a Republican ballot and vote for Nikki Haley.”
