A former Democratic National Convention (DNC) delegate has turned away from the Democratic Party and declared that she will be voting for former President Donald Trump.
“In 2020, I was elected at 18 to become one of the youngest delegates to the Democratic National Convention on behalf of my district. And in 2024, I was elected again to return to the DNC as a delegate,” Audrey McNeal said. “But this year, I’m casting my ballot for Donald Trump.”
“You see, after I was elected in March, which was before Joe Biden’s debate, I wanted to go to the DNC because I wanted answers on free speech issues, the border, and the economy,” she said.
“After reflecting on my time at the DNC, I realized it was no longer the party of free speech and civil liberties that it used to be,” McNeal noted, adding, “In fact, Patrick Henry once said that the liberties of a people never were, nor ever will be secure when the transactions of their rulers may be concealed from them.”
“For the rulers of the Democratic Party elite to install Kamala Harris as the presidential nominee via stripping the vote of 14 million Americans, including their own delegates such as myself, well that was a decision in a transaction that was concealed,” McNeal continued. “And now I’m happy to say that I’m officially joining the Republican Party as a constitutional conservative.”
American Faith reported that a DNC volunteer left the event knowing she would not be voting for Kamala Harris.
“I just got back from the DNC, where I signed up to volunteer. When I initially signed up to volunteer, Joe Biden was still the nominee; it wasn’t yet Kamala Harris,” a woman who identified herself as Evan in another video said.
“When I first got into politics, I thought that Democrats were the party of the people,” the woman added. “But at the DNC this week, I felt like I was in a building with the most elite and out-of-touch people in the entire world. It very much felt like, ‘Let’s just have a huge party and forget all of our problems because the vibes are good.’”
She noted that she went to the DNC “hoping that I would feel reconnected to the Democratic Party, that I would have more of a sense of understanding of Kamala and her candidacy and what she stood for.” Instead, she “ended up leaving feeling the opposite—more disconnected and alone than ever.”
