A man who voted for Donald Trump in 2016 said he won't do so again, in part because of the former president's efforts to overturn a legal and fair election, according to a testimonial.
Darin, a former Trump voter from Illinois, spoke out in a video provided by Republican Voters against Trump. The group recently announced an ad campaign to highlight the voices of former Trump voters.
“I voted Republican straight across the board my entire life until I saw Trump and his role in January 6," Darin says in the new video. "I can’t support a person like that.”

Darin goes on to say that he doesn't believe Trump's promise to only be a "dictator" for a single day.
"If he's going to be a dictator for one day, he's going to be a dictator, period," according to Darin.
As to why he voted for Trump in the first place, Darin said he had "wanted an outsider."
"I wanted someone who could come in and hold people accountable, and not buy into the status quo," he added, further pointing to Jan. 6.
"He's the one who drove action towards the Capitol. He drew his followers in to fight against what was a valid and legal election," Darin said.
"That, to me, is a dereliction of duty," he said. "His job as the President of the United States is to defend our Constitution and our democracy, and he is the one single person today that has the highest likelihood of ending our democracy."
