[quote=Anonymous]You know what IMO the most important stat out of last night was? In 2013 Democrats challenged like 23 seats in the state legislature that were held by Republicans. Last night they were challenging 54. That shows grassroots democratic passion, there are SO many new people running for office. Not something that will be super evident on the national stage but it is a fantastic sign for the next few years. 538 had an article awhile back that talked about the VERY strong correlation between new candidates of a party running and taking over seats in congress. Democrats have like more than 200 new candidates raising money, Republicans less than 30. Trump is causing Republicans to start retiring but he isn't sparking a passionate group of new politicians running for office...at least not for Republican office.[/quote]
