Ellspermann is a moderate. I don't think she'd overly cater to the far right. Many of the far right in Indiana are more of the " muh God and guns" crowd. Surprisingly 7-8 percent of them vote Libertarian but Ellspermann would take the more religious crowd and that result would push her over the top defeating the Dem. the Dem bench is rather weak around here even in a timeline like this. Still an interesting take Max. 😊
It's sort of a perfect storm situation, and Joe Walsh used to be a pro-choice Republican moderate, so people change over time. Thank you for that info though, couldn't really find much on Ellspermann.
Look at who is the current governor of Indiana? Pence is a Tea Party darling. I bet it was written to be a perfect storm.
