Thank goodness we rode whip-smart-Millie out on a rail. She could have cocked up the whole state.
But did you have to send her to Ohio???

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I just sent her vaguely west. I couldn't kick a whip smart woman like her into the sea, where she'd be likely to whip up dolphin support for her madness. Dolphins are known rapists, and you know how Republicans love them -- rapists, I mean.
Now Elizabeth Warren is going to speak. ♥ her

FL flipped 2 house seats and VA flipping 2 makes me happy.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
News is good here in Michigan so far. Flipped to a female Democratic governor, and got lots of cool new female blue House members. Hopefully the vote on legalizing weed will pass as well.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Been watching the election results all evening. Disappointed about Texas and Florida and Georgia, but not surprised. My VA district 05 went for the Bigfoot-loving Republican instead of the nice centrist lefty woman, and I'm disgusted about that. McCaskill lost, I'm sad. Donelly and Heitkamp lost, but probably for voting against KavaNo. But everything else has gone pretty well. Over 100 women elected to the House for the first time. Muslim, LGBT, Native American, Black, Latino, lots of minorities taking seats. And most importantly, Dems have taken the House, and that is going to make for interesting times.

Jennifer Palmieri (a former HRC campaign staffer) shared this tweet: [link]
It's from Abrams' campaign manager and reads:
UPDATE as of 11:35pm: We are still waiting on Metro Atlanta to report – rural counties are in, but the city and suburbs are not #gapol
You can follow her at [link]
EDIT: That tweet is the beginning of a thread with updates.

If the difference in Georgia is less than 20,000 votes, I expect serious litigation about voter suppression efforts.
As for Beto, everyone knew it was a long-shot, and he carried a lot of Dems with him down-ballot. Plus, the other TX senate seat is up in 2 years.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I expect serious litigation about voter suppression efforts.
God I hope so.
