I’m not familiar with the particulars of the race. But you’re right ... wasn’t Tedisco polling heavily ahead at one point?
What changed / happened?
Yes, he was up by double digits. Then he decided that he wouldn’t take a position on the stimulus package. I guess he had to consult with someone to find the right answer.
Republican candidates may not like it, but people have been so betrayed by Republicans that ANY sign that they aren’t rooted in principle is their death knell.
He did eventually take a stand against the stimulus and started saying the right things, but a lot of people had tuned out at that point.
