This is newsworthy because Massie was the only remaining Republican who insisted on the release of the Eppstein Files and at least had the courage to make it clear that the current U.S. president is deeply involved

    What sort of numbers were involved here? Primaries in my area are notoriously low turnout even in hot races. Did they get a ton more turnout relative to Dems with that much money spent?

      Turnout in Massie’s primary jumped to like 30 something percent of the district. He actually gained primary voters this year, but was swamped. I’m guessing hyper targeted ads got out the vote against him. That or fraud
