Dude's done great work here in MN. Most all of the upper-level state positions are all DFLers, thanks in part to him.

The House is pretty evenly split currently - only about three or so seats more for the Rs than the Ds. Senate's more an issue, but there's only so much we can do about that now.

None of the left-leaning pollsters I heard ever thought that these seats would flip. They were more interested in the margins.

And 30% to 15% is quite significant.

The district that elected Gaetz was never going to flip. Republicans won it by around 30 points in 2024.

The margin of victory tonight was only 15%.

I think a lot of ignorance of other countries and people are tied into how big the US is. it's basically as if all of Europe was one country, had a shared, baseline culture, and everyone spoke the same language.

Over in Europe, you can travel through multiple countries, each with their own shared history, language, and culture, each distinct from another - all in the same day.

Ken's done great work here in MN. We're an island of blue in a sea of red.

Not sure if you didn't get it, but that's a reference to an Arthur meme. altr
