Another former GOP member of Congress endorses Harris
Fred Upton, a former GOP congressman who voted to impeach Trump over the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, is endorsing Harris for president.
He joins a growing list of other Republicans, including Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney, in backing the Democratic nominee over concerns about Trump's role in the unrest.
"Today, I'm joining more than 30 former Republican members of Congress who publicly refused to support Donald Trump, and I'm proud to say that I've already cast my ballot for Kamala Harris," Upton told reporters on Thursday.
He added, "I've never before voted for a Democrat for president, and I honestly never thought I would, but she's strong, committed public servant. She's running to put people together, strengthen our economy and protect our fundamental freedoms."
Upton, who served 30 years in the House, said impassioned fights about policy were always the norm but "with Trump in charge, politics was more personal, more angry and more divided than ever before."
