What do you mean? You might as well ask why democrats aren't making much inroads in Oklahoma?
Partisan polarization is real. There are very few actual swing voters out there so it is tough for either party to make significant gains.
I mean, the republican party has all but devolved into an authoritarian cult and yet they are poised to win a trifecta in november. Its basically all about turnout these days and for a variety of reasons it is very very hard to get the very broad D coalition to turn out. It took record turnout in 2020 to defeat Trump and that is gonna be extremely hard to replicate. That's why Trump is currently clearly favoured to win in november.
