thisfinecrewHas everyone enjoyed watching the red wave not arrive?
The Senate looks to have remained under Democrat control (assuming no Republican troublemaking over the races that have been called) but there's still a run-off in Georgia. Winning that would mean Senate business would suffer less from being held hostage by the usual suspects. So let's keep moving forwards with that!

You can find links for the posts that were made for the 2020 run off at the comm's Georgia tag:

(I haven't checked the links in the posts to see which still apply.)
The House looks like it will end up in Republican control — just. Which somewhat limits their ability to introduce and progress bad legislation. (Although I'm sure we'll be hearing plenty about Hunter Biden's laptop and other similar nonsense in special investigation committees.)
At this point, it looks like the main need for House races is any remaining ballot-curing work, so please leave links for that if you have them.
And, of course, please let us know about any other actions we can take.
Finally, let's celebrate those governor and state legislature wins, the rejection of abortion restrictions at state level and all the other good stuff that happened!
