Didn`t Biden come pretty close to doing so (keeping in mind that the "swing
states" differ some each election)?
Other times I remember it happening was when one candidate is a lot weaker
than the other... like Reagan vs. Mondale. The Democrats switching horses
so late in the race most certainly weakened their ability to stay in power.
Switching to a candidate who had spent most of her four years as VP looking
overwhelmed anytime the spotlight was on her didn`t help. Spending ~100
days before the election looking competent wasn`t going to erase that.
If she had spent her four years looking like she did at the second debate,
I likely would have been swayed to vote for her but, as it was, I had to
look somewhere down the list to find someone I felt was competent enough,
reasonable enough, and "not a convicted felon" enough to cast my vote for,
even though their stated policies likely don`t align with mine.
Considering that a higher percentage of voters either skipped the
Presidential race, or voted third party, than voted for either Trump or
Harris, I don`t doubt there were a lot of voters with a similar mindset to
mine.
