And I love hearing "record margins" for Democratic/Progressive candidates in elections that aren't highlighted because they weren't considered "hotly contested."

I'm looking forward to an analysis of how big the swing was across counties and districts. That could be far more telling than all the wins we are rightly celebrating.
