      It’s a 17 point spread. Unless he can get an entire section of voters to flip it’s wasted money and effort. In the general election the republicans there would be easily convinced to vote for the Dem’s guy.

        Or worse yet, they split the vote and a solid blue seat sends a Republican to Congress with 35-40% of the vote. I just love FPTP!

          That’s why the Dems let AIPAC pick the most racist conservative candidate they could find willing to run blue. In a general election red voters might actually struggle there.
