A self-described “Forever Democrat” who was forced to flee her Aurora apartment building by the Tren de Aragua gang has revealed she will now vote Republican.
Cindy Romero and her husband moved out of the Edge Lory Apartments as a safety precaution after their security cameras filmed men armed with long guns in the complex trying to enter units.
“I’m going to vote out the Republicans,” Romero said Fox News digital.
“And I’m going to do it every year until someone does something about this problem. I don’t want my children to be the next victims of this.’
The Romeros had an elaborate system of locks running from the top of the door to the bottom, which they acquired when they saw the Denver suburb becoming less safe.

Cindy and Edward Romero moved out of the apartment for safety reasons after filming a shootout between gang members in late August
After a shootout at the apartment complex earlier this month, the Romeros’ car was riddled with bullets.
“I was pushed out of my apartment by gang activity, people carrying guns in the hallway and patrolling the grounds with guns,” Romero said.
Romero shared her story during Donald Trump’s appearance in Colorado, saying the media didn’t take her at face value or did their research and left her behind.
The images from Romeros’ cameras show heavily armed men storming through the block brandishing their weapons.
At the end of the video, the door opens and the apparent gang members all walk into the apartment. It is not clear whether anyone in the home was injured.
Romero was a guest when Trump spoke to a crowd of thousands of MAGA faithful in Aurora, Colorado, where he announced a brand new illegal migrant operation named after the city.
‘Operation Aurora’ will focus on Tren De Aragua. Trump made the new policy goal a reality while standing next to blown-up mugshots of several gang members apprehended by Aurora police.
Trump said Friday that Operation Aurora would act as a removal program for gang members, invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 “to target and dismantle any illegal criminal migrant network operating on U.S. soil.”
However, it is currently unclear how the plan would differ from current policies that allow the US to remove violent criminals.
Aurora came into the spotlight in August when the images of the Romeros appeared online. Trump has extensively claimed that Venezuelan gangs are taking over buildings.

DailyMail.com has obtained city records in which employees admitted that three rental properties have “complete control” of Tren de Aragua (TdA) and claim that many more than just three properties are victims of the “criminal scourge.”
“As of now, the Aurora-Multi-Family Properties are completely in the hands of the gangs,” the June 29 police report states.
The manager of the three properties (Aspen Grove Apartments, the Edge of Lowry and Whispering Pines) was told by the thugs not to go back or his life would be in danger.
Gang members were also known to be armed with deadly weapons, including assault rifles and knives.
A report from the law firm details the chaos at the apartments, including assaults that nearly killed victims, shootings, drug sales and even child prostitution.
