Glad to see Dems starting to realize that having Dems on the ballot increases turnout. Win or lose it encourages others to enter and can lead to increased Democratic wins.

All these unexpected wins everywhere with margins nobody predicted should be telling us something.
There's a huge Blue Wave coming if we invest the time and effort where we normally don't ie: Red States.
