US politicians who are good or bad 'fits' for their states/districts

[TheTide]

Rand Paul is a pretty bad fit for Kentucky. Pelosi seems like a good fit for her district. Fetterman is pretty good for Pennsylvania (Oz would have been terrible). Mitt Romney is pretty much perfect for Utah.

[Sir Mohamed]

These come to my mind, incomplete list:

Good fits: Jon Tester, Sherrod Brown, Jared Polis, Bob Casey, Ron DeSantis, Raphael Warnock, John Fetterman, Katie Britt, Henry Cuellar, Mike DeWine, Nancy Mace, Jim Justice, Mitt Romney

Bad fits: Rand Paul, Dianne Feinstein, Kathy Hochul, Keith Ellison, Mark Robinson, Jerry Nadler, Mike Lee, Anna Paulina Luna

[VPH]

Best?
-Peltola, MGP, Golden, Kaptur, Cartwright "ran way the heck ahead of Biden in blue-collar districts" types
-Rural Black Belt reps like Bennie Thompson, Sanford Bishop, Jim Clyburn, Terri Sewell, Donald Davis
-Barbara Lee is tailor-made for her leftist district
-Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar represent districts that have historically elected hard-right politicians (Bob Stump and Larry MacDonald)
-A good number of random suburban Dems have huge suburban energy like Houlahan, Dean, Mike Levin, Gottheimer, Lauren Underwood,
-Pete Stauber because he's a former hockey player in one of the country's most hockey-crazed areas and (guessing here) a union member in a very union-heavy area
-Breechen, Ronny Jackson, Morgan Griffith, and a number of other right-wingers from rural areas
-Brian Fitzpatrick is peak Bucks County

[Vice President Christian Man]

Best fits:
Chris Sununu--NH (Moderately socially liberal/fiscally conservative; perfect fit for the electorate)
JD Vance--OH (Can hardly think of a better fit for a state)
Maura Healey--MA (Very socially progressive and economically center-left which plays well)
Kristi Noem--SD (Conservative populist firebrand who did well in many of the states ancesteral Dem areas)
Gavin Newsom--CA (Stereotypical Bay Area politician; survived a recall attempt by over 20 points)

Worst Fits:
Rand Paul--KY (He'd make much more sense in a Western state)
Mitch McConnell--KY (See above)
Rick Scott--FL (Poor fit with its senior population)
Ron DeSantis--FL (At least in theory. He won in a landslide which makes little sense because he's socially reactionary which contrasts with its socially moderate electorate and the Latinos love him despite his anti-immigrant actions).
Krysten Sinema--AZ (She'd make a better senator in one of the Northeastern states)

"good fits": politicians who win
"bad fits": politicians who lose

There's nothing special about it

Good fits: Jon Tester, Sherrod Brown, Jared Polis, Bob Casey, Ron DeSantis, Raphael Warnock, John Fetterman, Katie Britt, Henry Cuellar, Mike DeWine, Nancy Mace, Jim Justice, Mitt Romney

Bad fits: Rand Paul, Dianne Feinstein, Kathy Hochul, Keith Ellison, Mark Robinson, Jerry Nadler, Mike Lee, Anna Paulina Luna

Mike Lee is a good fit for parts of Utah that Mitt Romney isn't such a good a fit for. Together they manage to fit their state pretty well.
