@eyokley@JohnCelock Akin was a very isolated example. Not sure you can glean much of a lesson from it, other than understanding biology. -
@JonSeaton18@JohnCelock ideologically extreme candidate wins primary, loses general election. Being replicated often, no? -
@eyokley@JohnCelock Well define "extreme," first. Yes, more ideological voters show up in primaries, that is true. -
@JonSeaton18@eyokley State legislative races have seen more ideological nominees win, but also districts tend to be more one party or other -
@JohnCelock@eyokley sure, that makes sense. I'd gather mainly in states with more restrictive campaign finance limits? Or not necessariy? - 1 more reply
