Adlai Stevenson learned this very well. The person who lost can still run for the office again, just not against the same person who you lost to last time.
Yup! Look at what happened with Russ Feingold.
That is why I am not buying into the Jason Kander Roy Blunt rematch in 2022. If Kander is smart he would try to for governor in 2020 or even attorney general. Incredibly Josh Hawley is already creating controversy.
Long shot but I would be interested to see if Jason Kander could compete in MO-02 if open. Though he is from the other side of the state so that could obviously be an issue even if Representatives need not live in the district they represent.
feingold would have won in a 2012 or better type of year
