This job has made me miserable for the last 4 years.I made a lot of people's lives objectively better, but the constant assassination threats and harassment were terrible for my family and my health.I'm relieved to say that I've done my part, and now it's someone else's turn.— Lee J.

Today was the primary election.
ouch
Truthfully, Carter had an uphill battle.
That being said, I'm surprised he did that poorly.
Way too online.
He won his first election knocking doors and meeting people.
Lol, you think that Bernie campaigned too online, too?
What you see here is establishment powers more than lack of door to door knocking.
His tussle over his wife on Twitter and arguing with the local DSAs was not productive.
He did best in the community he was representing -- which was awesome. I think he became too enamored with the likes on Twitter imho.
