For ME, Senusret I, I only have two issues that are paramount for me right now:
Marriage equality
DC Statehood
I know that I can vote Democrat with a good conscience as no Republican candidates that I know of support either cause.
That's nationally. LOCALLY, I have voted Socialist, Republican, and DC Statehood/Green party in addition to Democrat. Of course even here the politicians backpedal, but they at least all agree on DC Statehood.
I advise everyone to vote with their heart, whether it's Republican, Dems, or whoever. If black folks want to vote Republican because they align with their more conservative values, more power to them.
