Unfortunately most of us loose our way in off year elections and stay home. We do fine in Presidential elections usually, but we need to work on the next three years after to make great gains.
Republicans vote every year and that is how they always come back and win. That is how they control so many state governments. They vote.
We need to get out the vote better every year.
Hillary needs to ask for a democratic congress at every chance.

Wow. Thanks for taking your time to write this MrScorpio. Great.
