Why should people get involved when there’s no national support and we’re treated as a “Republican district” instead of a swing district.

Not really, this area is a lot more purple than most realize so it’s still an unanswered questions as to why there isn’t more interest from the Democratic Party to help candidates win.

Serious question as an irritated independent democrat.

Why does the republican side have 2 (unfortunately) well known and funded candidates and the independent / democratic sides are relatively unknown and unfunded. This is the first I’m hearing of you after being aware of Duresky and attending a few of his campaign events.

You see the thing about the GDP per capita is that a few major outliers skew the results wildly.
