Could it be that the candidates that didn't make it just needed better messaging? I would hypothesize over time that we may start seeing more drift away from the two familiar parties, but only when the voters are engaged and informed of their choices?

Oh, no, 1/5 voters in my district skipped that section entirely and didn't vote for anyone(!) In an election where the top 3 would win!
