I would probably say option 1. As an example, I think a rando plucked off the street could have held off Andy Beshear in 2019, whereas Matt Bevin failed to do so.

If by "rando" you mean a generic member of the party, then clearly option 1.

I mean "someone who would be starting the race with essentially 0 name recognition".
