    If you stretch a rubber band it gets longer. The two ends of the band get farther apart. This might be easier to imagine with a broken rubber band rather than a loop. If you stretch a lead, whether in sports, politics, or anything else, the gap gets larger. The two sides get farther apart.

      OK a stretch can also be a distance like: “a stretch of road.” I suppose that somewhat ties it together.
      We actually have the equivalent of stretch of road and to stretch something being similar words, but we would never say stretching a lead.
