Frank Luntz: Starting Tonight, I'm Not Part of the GOP

Prominent conservative pollster Frank Luntz has a message for the Republican party: he's no longer a member of the GOP.

Luntz appeared on Yahoo News' election night coverage and went on a mini-rant about where he stands on the political spectrum after witnessing the contentious race between Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton.

"Starting tonight on this show no one will call me a Republican again, because I am not part of this," Luntz said. "I'm not part of that system, I'm not part of that negativity. This is not something I was involved in this year, I will leave it to others to explain and to try to get themselves out of this mess."

Luntz has criticized the Trump campaign in the past. Last month, he called it "an absolute joke." 

Also in October, Luntz said, "This is about the voice of the voters, not the voice of Donald Trump… This should have been a slam dunk for the GOP."
