60. What huge electoral wins?

Mon Nov 10, 2025, 05:21 PM

Monday

Democrats won elections in four coastal state, all of which went for Harris last year. Only in Virginia did a democrat replace a republican. Control of neither house of congress was overturned because they weren’t at play. While democrats had a good night on Tuesday, it’s a bit of a stretch to call it a huge electoral win.
