Courtesy of Ballotpedia, I found out an interesting bit of history was just made recently -for the first time since Reconstruction, there are enough Republicans running for either chamber without Democratic opponents such that the control of the legislature has already been ensured without a single ballot being cast.
Truly pathetic how many seats and statewide offices were left unopposed. I wish everyone who votes would leave those uncontested seats blank so they lose.
In a state where white voters support the Republican Party at levels similar to the nearly universal support of Black voters to Democrats, what is the point in running for certain seats other than utter delusion?
