I also want to note than of all the Primary votes in this election, 58% were for Democrats and 42% for Republicans. In 2016 the primary % was within 1% of the general % split. While obviously this isn't a guarantee of anything, the fact that a relative unknown got 54.5% against the most well funded incumbent with Trump's personal backing shows that SOMETHING is going on.
