Thank you!

The Blue tsunami crashed into the artificial Red shoals and sandbags and still managed to be a big Blue wave. If not for the efforts of a lot of people, it wouldn't have been a ripple. Thanks to the GOTV efforts, the world will be significantly safer come January (assuming it survives the lame duck House and TrumPutin 'til then).

Democrats stepped up and stormed the Bastille (to mix metaphors a bit). Didn't get it all, but by the grace of hard work over long hours, Dotard's world has been changed!

My state is still blood red, but there is more blue in the land and hope for the future. Once more unto the breach, dear friends. The Repugs campaign against Democrats 24 / 7 / 365. We don't have talk radio and Fox, but we have voices and facts and, now, the House and more state offices.

The above was written after my bedtime and in a little bit of fog so it's missing at least the following.

New voters may be devastated that their particular candidate didn't win. They need to be reminded how big the red wall is and how big the blue wave hit it. They helped make change for the good.

The country turned a corner in spite of gerrymandering, voter purges, vote suppression, and constant propaganda aimed at distorting and denying facts. New voters should be proud of their part and encouraged to continue the good fight. We're on our way.

Massive boycotts are our best weapon.

We are a consumer society greased by advertising.
