    I’m not really understand the “70%” part. Can’t they just run again next election? Why would they be “out”?

      Because when enough people votes for something that is not the republican party, the balance of power can change and they “risk” getting to third place, where they are not relevant anymore.

      It’s an exaggeration. They probably mean “the current Republican Party” won’t exist anymore, because they’ll have to restructure their whole party line if they want to appeal to more voters.
