Always confused when politicians eat their own. Part of winning tough districts is everyone isn’t going to vote the same way, right? #MOLeg
@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? -
@JonSeaton18@eyokley Sometimes. No always. Just easier with smaller districts and dedicated voter base.
