We have great news, good news, and bad news. I don't believe all of the election problems are fixed and secure, and I don't think a lot of idiots have suddenly gotten wiser. And some people care more about a $50/month tax cut than babies being ripped away from their mother's breast.

...that's where the important work is to be done. The House is obviously good as a road block but we won't be able to actually pass any legislation.

But if we win state houses, especially with an upcoming census......we can enact some real change on the state level. Especially to insure fewer voter suppression shenanigans next time around.
