"Therefore by their fruits you will know them."
Matthew 7:20
That answers that question:
Overall, solid showing for Luther. Weak performance for Springer. When you're an incumbent state rep, you should at least score in the mid-40's.
Moving forward, however, Springer's strategy is obvious: Pick up the 21% who voted for the Democrat. Springer's 32% + The Democrat's 21% = 53%. Given that there's basically zero chance Democrats will vote for Luther, it's basic arithmatic.
The runoff will probably look a lot like the 2014 U.S. Senate runoff in Mississippi.
If you're Shelley Luther...buckle up...cuz' you ain't seen nothin' yet.
Bottom Line: Democrats are the largest free agent block of voters in the runoff, and they only have one place to go.
