Mario Cuomo and Ann Richards (two would-be presidents) both lost their re-election attempts for Governor.

Neither was considered safe, thus it wasn't unexpected, like Portillo moment.

Joe Biden's first election in 1972 was definiticely a Portillo Moment. He was a 29-years old freshman county councilmember who received a Democratic nomination because no one else wanted this due to a popular Republican incumbent running. He received very little assistance from the party and trailed 30 percent in summer. Then the election day came and everybody were like DUDE, WHAT THE F**K JUST HAPPENED IN DELAWARE?
