In 2022, Chris Jones, a nuclear engineer, ran for Governor of Arkansas
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Jones_(Arkansas_politician)
He is an Arkansas native. He wrote a detailed platform about improving Arkansas. He visited every single county. His opponent, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, barely campaigned.
Jones lost by double digits. She absolutely destroyed him.

How the fuck did that happen? What’s the Arkansas culture like?
Most Republican dominated southern states will always vote R.
Let’s use Oklahoma as an example. A state that has been run by Republicans for almost 2 decades, and they still blame democrats for everything. Most people in Oklahoma are highly religious team players. They will ALWAYS vote R, no matter who is on the ticket. Could be the neighbors dog vs. constitutional scholar.
Neighbors Dog - R
Scholar- D
Dog winning 10/10 everytime.
Warnock vs Walker in Georgia was a great example.
Didn’t Warnock win?
Former okie here, born and bred. So conservative, even the cities vote R.
