I mean the opposite has happened. Democrat elected in turned Republican. Unfortunately we elect the person so if they fail their voters like that you have to wait till they screw up or reelection. This might vary by state though, but I think this is also the common logic for it?
Right I meant more of not “switching parties” like they did. Moreso, elected as a Republican and only vote with the democrats without changing your party.
In a small town election you may get away without having to do that. I read of a case where someone ran for republican, was unchallenged for republican candidates, then in primaries was voted in because she had an R in front of her name.

Problem is you have to do/say a lot of terrible shit to get accepted by GOP voters. They want a track record of hurting people.

Yeah I was thinking about that as I was trying to pay the scenario in my head. I couldn’t do it.
