But Murkowski illustrates that in fact you don't need the party apparatus if you have the people. It's a lot of work, but if you have that popular support it's really possible.

I'd say she actually underscores that write-ins prevent some types of democratic backsliding in the US, and I wouldn't be at all surprised if the unhealthy instincts of the core Republicans who tend to decide primaries in deeply Red states result in at least one more Murkowski in 2022.
