I would hardly call that a right wing conspiracy, a conservative movement, right wing nut jobs, or anything of the like, which was my point before the name calling started.
And, the nature of democracy and elections is that we all take all of our biases and life experiences with us to the booth. If a lady with red hair cut you off in traffic on the way to vote, and you vote against a lady with red hair who is running for election, that is absolutely your right, and you don't have to explain it to anyone.
You wouldn't be less American for it.
