Disappointed but loyal to GOP

I went to vote March 5 in the Republican presidential caucus in Kenton County and found traffic backed up for at least a mile from the polling place. One voting location in the whole county for all Republicans to vote. Rand Paul and the Kentucky Republican Party are responsible for this stupid situation.

As badly as I wanted to vote, as I have done for 50 years, I made a U-turn, as I noticed many other people were doing, and went back home. I’ll vote for Paul for senator in the general election while holding my nose because I do not wish to enable the Democrats to take over the U.S. Senate. He created this mess and then dropped out of the presidential race.
