5. Cindy Axne was in my small red county innumerable times, Hubbell

no so much. I think Cindy hit all District 3 counties several times. It would have been harder for Hubbell to hit all 65 counties as much as Cindy did, but I had a sense that Hubbell wasn't all out for winning his election. His naturally introverted character didn't seem right for politics. In contrast, Cindy was really out here hitting all the county bases and won.
Remarkably, I still can't understand how Axne and Finkenhauer could win for Dems and Kim Reynolds (R) take it for Governor. Do that many people really split their ticket? Seems schizophrenic to me.

I think you're right about Hubbell not having the right disposition for politics. minstrel76 Nov 2018 #7

His lack of connection to the rural counties was my concern from the day he won the primary. progressoid Nov 2018 #9
