I know tons of Republicans who did what I did, or left the top line blank. I know a ton who flipped over to Hillary.

It's the height of arrogance to think the Rs voted lockstep. What you might better consider is how many middle class Ds switched over to Trump.

It's no secret the union heads were pledging allegiance to Hillary while the the actual members were voting for Trump. I heard as much from almost every union member I know from DC to NYC.
