far less than a blue wave but winning the house was by far the most important thing, and the dems prevailed. trump has been able to steamroll because the GOP had all three branches of government, this will be the first time he will be held accountable for anything. dems take every house committee chair position, only a matter of time before Adam Schiff has trumps tax returns in his hands and don jr. gets indicted.
bummed the dems didn't take one of the big races in Florida or Texas, Georgia is still too close to call. and two GOP house reps who have been indicted managed to win reelection, oy.
but don't overlook the pretty great progress on women and minorities winning house districts, put there by huge waves of women and minority voters. midterms typically have really low turnout, yet Madison, WI recorded 91% turnout of registered voters, that's insane (and the state where Scott fucking walker got booted from his governorship!).
lots of other positive news: first muslim woman in congress, first woman governor of Maine, first openly gay governor of Colorado.
