40% in 2014
27% in 2012
14% in 2010 (before redistricting)

One caveat - Those were with a long-time incumbent

As Sean Trende of Real Clear Politics said , this election shouldn't even be a nailbiter.

Can I add this..if we win even by 100 votes, that would show a significant change and there is only one reason....A lot of Republicans are done with Trump, and this is their way of proving it. Trump sends out hate, and that what he gets back..
