Even mythical "good Republicans" would contribute toward Republican majorities if elected to local and state governing bodies, and we often see that they simply won't stand up to rightwing extremists once they're there. And since Republican majorities time and again bend toward extremism every chance they get, NO Republican, frankly, is worth a vote anywhere at any time.
