Wow.

I didn't see the results until now.

48% for Roberts.

The GOPe strategy will fail in the general election.

Wait and see.

That’s very likely in MS, but not KS. I don’t think KS has had a Democrat senator in over 60 years.

Same here -

this is why every election needs the “instant runoff”,
where you vote for 1st choice, 2nd choice, and perhaps 3rd choice.

If no candidate receives 50% + 1 vote of the 1st choice votes,
you add 1st and second choices.

That way, someone could have voted this way:
1st - whatever “minor candidate”
2nd - Wolf
3rd - Roberts

And you can see that if those 11% had voted this way, Roberts would have been defeated.
