Is Mandela Barnes a stronger or weaker candidate than Russ Feingold?

Feingold lost both US Senate Elections 2010 and 2016 to Ron Johnson by a 4 percent margin. Will Mandela Barnes win, lose by a margin less than Feingold’s margin of defeat, or lose by a margin greater than Feingold’s margin of defeat.
