Wasn't that like a +18 district before?
Hooooooly shit. I mean, she might still win - and most likely will. But the fact that they have to spend so much time and money on something that was a deep red district...yikes.
Yeah, I can see the Dems being competitive in +12 Kansas, but +18 palmetto state is a stretch even with a Republican candidate with zero qualifications. I'd be giddy
Then too, trump may just be going to deep red areas so that his rallies are friendlier
I also think there's no real chance of her losing, but seeing Paxton looking desperate in Texas, I'm at least willing to admit a remote possibility.
Maybe R voters who would normally sleepwalk to the booth were jolted by Lindsay Graham's abrupt exit. If they wanted to see her speak out of curiosity, there may be some "she's dumb as a brick, might as well vote different to try to get gas prices down" energy out there.
Not enough, I'm sure, but some.
