Today we are looking at the states with less Democratic support. In this states is difficult to think about the Democratic Party as the leading party, then the approach will be a little different.
In the previous diary for the 23 most Democratic states I find the three best performing Democrats that can be active in the following elections. These were the conditions that I follow for that:
- To take Democratic or Democratic leaning Independent politicians.
- To include not the politicians with higher level in the order of precedence than a Secretary of the Cabinet (level 18).
- To take politicians that run a race for the Senate and Governor.
- To take politicians that run not but poll recently stronger than the politicians that run.
- To take politicians that born in 1941 or later, and the older incumbents in the senate or as governors.
- To take only the last result of every politician in these races. If someone runs later unsuccesfully for lower level office, gets out.
Like I tell, the approach today is a little different. This time I do the same research but for the Republicans as the leading party (without apply the rule of the polling because I would forget someone).
But at same time I find every Democrat that would overperform some or all the Republicans in every state, and the list is so long for my surprise. In the previous diary I do the same finding the Republicans that perform better than the Democrats but I publish not it because I want not to make easier to the Republicans to find their better options.
