Remember that most of this region's registered voters are Democrats. They stopped voting for Democratic candidates at the national level because they feel national Democrats no longer care about their best interests. Thus, a Democratic candidate who can truly appeal to them could easily make this district at least competitive.

I don’t know why people ever thought Ojeda would win here.

To be fair, there were some polls which had Ojeda in the lead.

In addition, his campaign style was looked upon favorably by many progressives, which they thought would be attractive to the many registered Democratic voters in this region.

While Ojeda did not win outright, he did manage to outperform Hillary by over 30 percentage points, which I would still regard as impressive.
