William Kristol: “You can’t go home again, they say. But I did today, briefly.”
“I voted this morning in the Republican primary here in Virginia. I’ve participated in many GOP primaries over four decades in this fine commonwealth, which has no party registration, and where you simply request a ballot for one party’s primary or the other.”
“But I hadn’t voted in a Republican primary since 2016. I had to steel myself to ask for a ballot for my former party, one that is about to overwhelmingly nominate Trump for a third consecutive time. But I did so. And I cast my vote for Nikki Haley.”
“Now what? (Not for me—I’m back home safe and sound from the polling place, once again an ex-Republican, and looking forward to participating in the Democratic primary for our House seat in June.) What’s next for Nikki?”
