Well...a lot of that wasn’t so much a rejection of Republicans as it was an objection to her decision to run for governor against a Repub. incumbent. Her opponent wasn’t near as disgusting and repulsive as McConnell’s (which is what saved his butt)!
Gov. Fletcher needed our support and a lot of Repubicans felt like she wasn’t trustworthy after throwing Gov. Fletcher under the bus, so the money that she normally raises didn’t flow in this time.
At least, that’s my amateur analysis. If I lived in her district I would have voted for her, because no point in crying over spilt milk...but I do know a lot of Republicans up that way who didn’t vote for her for those reasons.
Any trolls out there?
