I feel like you answered your question to an extent. It's important to remember, though, that Lee was turned into an almost legendary figure in the south following the war. Longstreet was seen as a villain, supporting Republicans and working with "the enemy". So while Lee may have even defended him in private (I have no evidence he did, this is purely to make a point) those who wrote the histories of the two had motive to not acknowledge it.

There's nothing illegal about receiving the ballot application, turning it back in is what is illegal

Reply to comment by MattFromChina in Pennsylvania district rejects Satanists’ $578 donation for school supplies by magenta_placenta
Here is the thing, I'm involved with this district's fundraising foundation (before anyone jumps on this we actually have turned down religious and political donations because we do not want to appear influenced by either, but this article is referencing donating directly to the district, which is a separate entity from us). It completely demoralizes me when I can see hundreds take an evening to protest masks or satanists or whatever other boogie man is out this week but can't spend an evening helping raise money for school supplies for teachers.

I'd bet more libertarian voters just don't show up. My theory is the "Libertarians" that are actually Rs in disguise always fill out the ballot for the R when push comes to shove. Then there are true believers. They hate both major parties and won't show up in a runoff. Finally, there are the disillusioned Rs. If you poke around /r/neoliberal you'll find a huge pipeline of people, myself included, who grew up in conservative areas, became disillusioned with Republicans but still were convinced Democrats are evil, made a stop off at libertarianism, realized democrats aren't evil, and became moderate Democrats.
