Count two more votes for Hillary in CT

Hubby (who registered as a Democrat last year after better than 20 years as a Republican - I know, late to the party, but better late than never!) and I just cast our votes for Secretary Clinton.

I was also a Republican-registered voter for years. I used to vote for the least odious one in the Primary, then vote Dem in the generals.

His family were all registered Repubs and he just fell in line when he was a young'un. "Inherited politics" at its finest/worst. Just finally got around to changing the affiliation that he hadn't adhered to in a very, very long time!

Just finally got around to changing the affiliation that his family encouraged. Come to think of it, in our 30+ years of marriage, I only know of one Republican that he voted for, and that guy ended up going to jail. (John Rowland, former Gov of CT) That was the final straw for him.
