I've never heard of this guy. This the only thing I could find that seemed to give context here.

During the race, far-right accounts claiming to be Stancil supporters harassed his opponents, who obliquely criticized his use of social media.

Who is this guy and why do people hate him?

To quote a HB comment about him, he's Nate Silver, but worse. Got bullied off of Twitter, went to Bsky, got bullied off of Bsky, I assume he went back to Twitter, I don't use either emilie-shrug

Allow me to show my age. Who is Nate Silver?

He came up with an election model that predicted most of the voting results in the 2008 presidential election and coasted on that for years but only gave Trump a 25%~ chance to win in 2016.

Real "The left and the right both say that I shit my pants, so I must be doing something correct." vibes from what I can gather.
