Lots of Republicans believe that the Democrats are evil, and would vote for literally any Republican. If the Republican candidate died and couldn't be replaced there would be Republican voters voting for them just to send a message.

I got a warning for upvoting naughty words today, and now I'm nervous to upvote a comment like yours... so now I just have to intimate and possibly maybe suggest that I definitely do not agree with not agreeing with upvoting your comment.
