Earlier quoted context omitted.

In my district, the margins on those were even larger than the presidential margins. I still voted, but the outcomes were all very predictable here.

Are you actually saying the difference - in number of votes - for President for your state was smaller than the difference - in number of votes - for every local judge, school board member, etc? I mean, not impossible, but surprising. Where are you located?

The number of votes was only wider in one or two of them (statewide races). The local races were mostly uncontested (or lightly contested).
