If nothing else, it's good for the party to have credible candidates who can actually campaign in deep red areas, as opposed to being either completely incompetent or grifting a la Marcus Flowers.

I'm really impressed with the Democratic Senate Candidates running in red states this election cycle. They have credible backgrounds and interesting profiles.
Democrats in red states need to be fired up and expand the base.
In the case of the WV counties i mentioned where Biden got 40% of the votes, the most notable cities in the state are located in those counties. Definitely not deep red territory. Locally wise, Glenn Elliott could help turnout in cities like Charleston, Huntington, Morgantown, and others depending on what his ground game is looking like.
As far as TN is concerned, local turnout would be more applicable for Gloria Johnson in cities like Memphis and Nashville, where there are more diverse number of demographics favorable to Democrats than the rural parts of the state.
I'm just curious if we have candidates further down the ballot(otherwise, it's kind of a waste to a large degree)that can benefit; I'm talking state lege, County council, local Council\Mayor
I can't comment on the more local races, but I would think in both TN and WV in the Senate and Presidential races that turnout will help the local races in areas that are not deep red.

Good candidates across the board; if anything, they may create small amounts of interest locally
Yes.

Hard to say until the election results come.
