Brad Ashford's performance here in 2016 was pathetic.  Trump only won here 48%-46%.  Any non scandal tarred incumbent should be able to run a point ahead of their Presidential nominee.

Ashford's problem, if I remember correctly, was that he didn't take his fundraising seriously and had initially refused national help. He got better as the campaign went on, but his slow start is probably what did it in for him in the end.

I'm at least happy to see Democrats aren't giving up on this district. It's definitely winnable for them.

Agreed. In a swing district like this, you need to be fundraising for your reelection before you even get sworn into office.
