Brent Simmons make a pretty good case for voting blue for the entire ballot:

If Republicans in Congress had acted as a check on his power, if they had exercised oversight, then I could plausibly suggest voting for the best candidate in each race.

But that didn’t happen. Not even close. It’s been quite the opposite — Republican politicians have aided him at every conscience-shocking turn, and the Republican party has become the party of white nationalism.

I don’t think that I would take a route like this for local elections¹, but I couldn’t help send a Republican to Washington after watching how they looked passed the worst aspects of Trump for the last two years in favor of political gain.
