(3,611 posts)project all your faults onto your opponent. If you haven't noticed a large fraction of the Republican party believes Democrats are the spawn of Satan himself. They would never check that box. Best you can hope for is they are so disgusted with their candidate they leave them blank (and don't register a vote).
I'm amazed at how many Democrats still believe that if they help their opponent, their opponent may change their minds a love them. Now maybe some will but the vast majority have been trained to believe the worst about the Democratic party. Give them something and they think you're stealing from them.
