        I’ve been voting all my life, silly. This is statistics, not a TV show where the power of believing in yourself magically saves the day.

          Ironically the more people that listen to your advice, the less your advice is accurate.

          It’s almost like you’re bait and switching logic for emotional reactionism.

      Disregarding the down ballot issues, this is an incredibly myopic viewpoint.

      States change affiliation. It takes time. And a red state that is less red than the previous election? That gets noticed. Policies can shift, slowly. More local offices will be challenged.
