1. As to stunning defeat, it doesn't mention AIPAC's role

I also wonder what would have happened if they had ranked choice voting.

However, she is an exciting choice and I hope the Democratic party gets solidly behind her.

As to the Republican, he is mayor of the town I lived in for 25 years. They do not vote for mayor. That position moves between the town council people. In his case, he was appointed to the council to finish a term and then was reelected. Town council races were rarely super competitive. Caveat - I moved to Vermont 13 years ago.

The point is that the Republican candidate has never had to run the type of race he will be in now.

One good thing for us was this district was made more Democratic in the last redistricting.
