Presley is probably Democrats’ best possible candidate here, and it never hurts to have a good candidate just in case. I know Democrats have tried to get him to run statewide for awhile, so it’s good that he’s finally decided to do it.  But, I think this will be an uphill climb for Presley. If Jim Hood couldn’t win in 2019, it’s difficult to see how Presley could win.

That said, Reeves doesn’t seem very popular. It seems he’s vulnerable in a primary and possibly the general.

Welp, Democrats just sacrificed their last competent state official.  I like Presley, but he will not do as well as Hood in the general election.

I get what you mean, but if you’re Presley, this is probably your best chance to run statewide (even if it’s an uphill climb). If not now, when would he run statewide? Ticket splitting is becoming much less common, and he probably has a better chance against a relatively unpopular incumbent than he would in an open seat race.
