73. Northam had a change of heart.

Many people do change over time.
I know many who voted Republican as their families had done so for generations.
Many of them left the party over the past decade.
Between the Bush II disaster and the rise of over white nationalism, the GOP is losing self identified partisans.

Northam and Crist belong in the Democratic Party.
