And Ted Bundy was a Republican…your point Mr. Smith???

Doh!

And not just your average Republican:

In early 1968 he dropped out of college and worked at a series of minimum-wage jobs. He also volunteered at the Seattle office of Nelson Rockefeller’s presidential campaign,[35] and in August, attended the 1968 Republican National Convention in Miami as a Rockefeller delegate.[36]

After graduating from UW in 1972[43] Bundy joined Governor Daniel J. Evans’s reelection campaign.[44] Posing as a college student, he shadowed Evans’s opponent, former governor Albert Rosellini, recording his stump speeches for analysis by Evans’s team.[45][46] After Evans’s reelection he was hired as an assistant to Ross Davis, Chairman of the Washington State Republican Party. Davis thought well of Bundy, describing him as “smart, aggressive … and a believer in the system.”[47] In early 1973, despite mediocre Law School Admission Test scores, Bundy was accepted into the law schools of UPS and the University of Utah on the strength of letters of recommendation from Evans, Davis, and several UW psychology professors.[48][49]

During a trip to California on Republican Party business in the summer of 1973 Bundy came back into the life of ex-girlfriend Brooks, who marveled at his transformation into a serious, dedicated professional, seemingly on the cusp of a distinguished legal and political career.

While it doesn’t explicitly say it here, I could have sworn I remember him being touted as an up and coming Republican candidate.

It’s funny how no one links Bundy to the entirety of the GOP, but the nuts on the right always love to show even the thinnest of connections to some lawless schmuck who might be registered as a dem (whether they actually vote or not) as being a party operative.
