He was.

There were two very good alternatives in the Nov. 3 primary. Dustin Murphy (Republican) and Aaron Sigler (Libertarian). Both were strongly small government, pro-liberty. Cassidy got 59.3%, Murphy 1.9%, and Sigler 0.5%.

There's the problem. People are too lazy to be bothered to look at all the options and instead simply vote for the R they recognize because "can't let the D win".

Had Cassidy's votes been split among these three, they each would have got 20.6% and two of them would have been in a run-off. The closest D was Perkins with 19.0%.

Cassidy is typical of the intellectually deficient, establishment hacks that the state keeps sending to D.C., and it is completely the fault of Republican voters who allow themselves to be manipulated by the party over and over again.
