four year nightmare. We only see a few legal allies readying for court battle, and our Democratic party congress people readying for legislative battle.

We also face an electorate that in large numbers didn't even vote; large numbers who don't want to deal with this (even in our party).
We could lose again if 54% of the electorate are below 6th grade literacy. Too many choose to believe "we've gotten through this before" as Mike Schmitt just said on MSNBC. It's likely that more of the electorate will personally struggle or despair to the point that they don't believe their election participation will matter anymore. ( I'm not one of them, but still, I lost thousands in donations to losing candidates.)

Though we don't know, might not know for awhile, maybe we'll know more by the midterms.
