A local special election being won doesn't mean a whole lot, either. Non-presidential elections and especially ones without Trump on the ballot inspire a very different voting group. This wasn't a federal election, either.

So my wager is on some combination of the following:

  1. Really low turnout.
  2. Mentioned working class.
  3. Didn't mention Trump.
