Treacy Broadhead, a registered Republican, has voted in recent years for all of her party’s candidates for office, save one: Donald J. Trump.
“This particular president, I don’t agree with at all,’’ she said on Wednesday as the House of Representatives moved toward a historic impeachment vote. “I think the evidence is pretty clear,’’ said Ms. Broadhead, referring to the two charges that Mr. Trump abused the powers of the presidency and obstructed Congress.
A bookkeeper here in Bucks County, Ms. Broadhead embodied the political upheaval in the Philadelphia suburbs, where former Republican strongholds stocked with well-educated voters have revolted against Mr. Trump and punished his party in three election cycles since 2016. …
Come November 2020, impeachment may well have faded from voters’ minds, given the scandal exhaustion of the Trump era. But some voters said the Trump presidency would remain tainted, coloring the election. CONT.
