She just couldn't vote for "the lesser of two evils". Then the Trump 2020 S**t Show happened and she came to the conclusion Trump is an insane maniac. She voted for Biden.

... okay, family... it was a dumb family member on FB... but not a CLOSE relative, just a relative.

He voted for Biden (supposedly) but posted that he felt "dirty" after doing so. The he "held his nose" to do it. And he compared it to asking the convicted if they wanted to be beheaded by axe or guillotine.

A gruesome way for my idiotic 2nd (maybe 3rd) cousin to express his "all the same" belief.

He's not very smart. I don't think he graduated HS.

I'm only FB friends with him as a courtesy. I never really see him ever. We were adolescents the last time we saw each other.
