# Register Republican, Vote Nikki Haley. That’s How We Stop Trump.

LA WATCHDOG - This is an interesting Letter I found to the Editor of the Los Angeles Times:
*For the first time in my life, I am registered to vote as a Republican. Why? Because maybe, by the time Californians vote on March 5, there will still be a primary candidate to challenge former President Trump, as Kurt Bardella wrote in his op-ed article, Nikki Haley is the best hope to keep Trump out of the [White House](https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2024-01-04/donald-trump-nikki-haley-republican-presidential-candidates).*
*In 2015, I moved here from Illinois, where I was able to vote in either primary regardless of party affiliation. I did that depending on the candidates.*
*I encourage my fellow Democrats to change their party affiliation just in case there is some hope in March that we can stop Trump. You can do it [online](https://voterstatus.sos.ca.gov/) and change it back later.*
