      Not Trump is all I need to vote that aside. One midterm race that I watched closely that didn’t get a lot of national attention was Ryan vs Vance for the Ohio Senate. Ryan ran on abortion rights, reversing job loss & wage stagnation, reducing fossil fuels & increased renewables especially solar, debt free tuition, etc. He ran on more than not trump. Democrats just didn’t bother to vote and Ohio elected Vance who only got nominated because of Trump.

        Not sure where I read, but don’t less Democrats vote during midterms?

          Voter participation goes down across the board in a midterm. The party out of power typically gets a bump and generally republicans are more reliable voters than Democrats. So yeah. Typically.
