I live next to this district. It is really red and if a Bernie Sander’s style liberal/socialist/democrat tried to run there a) it would be next to impossible to get any funds from the state or national level Democrat organizations and b)they would get hammered hard. And that’s IF they would even be able to run in the first place.

You’d be surprised at how often Republicans run for office here unopposed. Or, if a Democrat does run, you barely see or hear about them. Barry Loudermilk (R-Notsobright) is my Congressional Representative. His “challenger” was someone no one heard of and I think I saw 2 commercials and that was it. There have been plenty of local level offices filled with no challengers to the GOP candidates in the 20 years I’ve lived here. Sadly, the damned damage from years of liberals=scum of the earth rhetoric have made things just stupid difficult.
