wouldn't necessarily blame chicanery.

I doubt the pukes were quaking in their boots over the lady that was "supposed to" win the primary.

This seems to be a low-key race that Dems didn't think they could win so it got little attention, voters likely didn't know jack about any of the Dems so they picked the name that sounded best to them.

I'd blame the state party for failing to publicize to enough people who the serious candidate was in this race. Sigh.
