2024 Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, like now-President Joe Biden in 2020, has picked up many endorsements from conservative Republicans — including former Vice President Dick Cheney, former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyoming), former U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, ex-Trump White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham, ex-Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Illinois), former Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Arizona) and ex-Trump White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci. And Harris has made a point of featuring some Republicans in her campaign adds.

Two of them are Pennsylvania farmers Bob and Kristina Lange, who discussed their endorsement of Harris in an interview with Fox News Digital.

According to Kristina Lange, some fellow Republicans have been "thanking" them for publicly coming out in support of the vice president.

Kristina Lange told Fox News, "I see that they're on the same page as we are. They're approaching us and telling us, 'We're behind you.' They are thanking us for what we're doing."

Kristina Lange continued, "They are thanking us for being brave because many people are afraid to speak out against Trump because of, you know, revenge and other things like that. So, all the Republicans, for the most part, that we're spoken to are backing us. The ones that are still voting for Trump, that come into our store — they let us know they're voting for Trump, and in a respectful way. We respect them, they respect us. And that's the way it should be."

Bob Lange predicted that many other Republicans will be voting for Harris in November.

"In my gut feeling," he told Fox News, "I think that Kamala Harris is going to win significantly. Because I think a lot of Republicans are scared of retribution and repercussions from the Trump people. When they get in to vote, I think a lot of Republicans are going to vote Harris just for the sake of democracy. They may not like to do that, but the alternative is much, much worse. "
