I heard Carr didn’t have much money but that sounds like a poorly run campaign to me.
We must expect and demand better, in future elections.
Believe me it was a poorly run campaign, he didn’t want to travel more than mid and E TN, nearly totally ignored W TN. No signs, 1 or 2 tv ads, no counter lamar ads, he “wanted family time” was the big excuse he didn’t get to this end of the state but 4 times all but 1 were RSVP donor. The last was a weekday, short notice, limited space Huey’s, people who work, have appointments, are not available. No Saturday day events where seniors could go. Many seniors do not do night driving from rural areas. It is dangerous.
Then he did not appeal to the Military at all. And that would have made a huge difference as this 3 county area is full of Retired Military with a Military base.
