It's doable, with only upwards of 50% of elligible voter voting in an election.
We know that the Democrats are going to use their knock and drag technique again. The troll through minority neighborhoods to drive people to the polls and they don't take no for an answer (they will stop by the same home 3 times on election day and that to me smells of intimidation).
Driving people to the poll and telling them to punch "the second hole" may have gotten some manipulated voters to vote for Buchanan. I still subscribe to the theory that the "dimpled" chads came from stacking punched ballots together and punching "votes" for Gore.
I've seen Democrat "knock and drag" turn a local election (Houston's lousy mayor, Lee P. Brown, got to serve his final term because of DNC effort in the local runoff election). Maybe we need to remind the locals, who all now curse Brown's name, of just who we have to thank for his final 2 years trashing Houston's budget.
