JFC I don't know how you misread things so badly. Go read from the very start

She did lose because she moved a little bit left and the voters did not show up.

~~We're saying you don't understand cause and effect.~~

~~You are saying A (moving left) caused B (losing).~~

~~If A didn't happen, then B also would not have happened. Therefore, "if she had stayed to the right, she would have won."~~

Edit: I think I figured out what I've got wrong. If I rephrase what you said, then it makes more sense:

"She did lose because the voters did not show up, even though she moved a little left."
