Should Democratic Voters in all states start changing their registration to Republican?

[Chasstev365]

Would that make purging Democratic Voters more difficult and less effective?

Just a thought.

1. lol, that's slick. Surely some have already exercised that strategy. /nt

2. They would claim it was an attempt to disrupt the election

and use it as an excuse to delay and/or discard the results. PEOPLE NEED TO VOTE IN SUCH MASSIVE NUMBERS THAT QUESTIONING THE RESULTS WOULD BE OBVIOUSLY FRAUDULENT.

3. What it would effectively do is turn the GOP into a liberal party if they run and co-opt the primaries

4. Don't register in Texas but when a shooter does something evil here, the media always say it was a Dem.

5. Reminds me of the "Spartacus" maneuver -- the Romans can't figure

out which of their captives could be Spartacus because all the captives are claiming to be him.

Confess I thought of this, too. It would be more difficult to gerrymander districts. Downside (besides not being true to our party) is lack of being able to vote in the Dem Primary in closed Primary states. Could only vote for worst Repug...and then cross over to vote all Dem in the General.

Limbaugh came up with a version of this for a couple of election cycles in the late 1990s/early 2000s. As I recall, Repugs were to switch to Dem for the primary and switch back to vote in the General. That only works if switching is easy to do...a Repug co-worker of mine did it.

6. Sounds like an idea to me
