I assume there were a lot of people from "red" districts at those marches who felt that their concerns were not answered by the Trump election.

Much work needs to be done, but I suspect we might get some spreading support in those rural districts we've been losing for years and years.

Your idea of calling Sens and Reps is a good one. Let them know you're out there and concerned. But that's always a good idea. The important thing will be if the marches and the publicity leads to some local activism in areas that the Dem party has been weak in.

I firmly believe that we could flip the House in '18. But it'll take work.
