I was just checking the ballot for my area, and half of it was unopposed Republicans. Where is the Democratic party?!

    Oh sure, totally understandable. I grew up in a mid-Atlantic state during the 80s & 90s, where even the Democrats would’ve been Republicans anywhere else. Tons of GOP incumbents never had opponents. It gradually got much better but it takes time and a change in demographics to make those changes, not Don Quixotic campaigns that are destined to lose.
