Doesn’t say much for Alex’ research if she doesn’t realize there wasn’t a ‘crushing defeat’. Ginny was running somewhat close to Lacey in the polls. She dropped out of the primary and threw her support to Lacey to save the district from some sleazy establishment candidate. In a sense, Ginny made Lacey’s legend possible.

The crazy thing about this arc with Alex is that she probably will publish a cutting edge documentary out of it. Remember, her birth was a work of performance art.
