31. He is probably going to win it but this is an earthquake in Redville

Winning by a quarter of a percent in a district that Dumpster Fire won by over 20 points and that is so reliably red that they don't really have to campaign??? That is gonna rattle cages in red circles. There WILL be fallout from this one. If they didn't believe the results in the other elections, no matter how much they deny it publicly, this scares the hell out of them. It isn't a shot across the bow warning, it is a direct hit scoring serious damage. It didn't sink their battleship, but the motherfuckers FELT this one big time!!!!
