According to the independent Cook Political Report, Frost has a solid Democratic chance of winning the next general election. Winning in the 10th congressional district.

Representatives Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., Mondaire Jones, D-N.Y., Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Ed Markey, D-Mass., as well as Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., all supported Frost.

Among his rivals, Frost spent the most on television advertisements. The only other contestants to advertise on the airwaves were Bracy and former Representative Alan Grayson.

Corrine Brown, a former representative who lost her 2016 primary while facing numerous fraud charges. Was also a participant in the primary. After having her initial felony convictions overturned. She entered a plea of guilty to one count of tax fraud in May.

Brown was not expected to win, despite having a higher name recognition than the majority of the other contenders.
