Which word should replace impressive to create a sentence with a negative connotation?

B.shameful
C.expected
D.amazing

Answer 1

B. Shameful would be my thought.

Answer 2

A.surprising

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative connotation can come from the idea that the results weren´t what people expected, as someone who wasn´t expected to win actually won the election, that´s why surprising could have a negative connotation since it would be surprising that someone that wasn´t popular or desired had won the election.
