I got confused with the wording of what Congressional district I'm in and thought that the commies had moved in and replaced our district's incumbent but fortunately I apparently live in MN-6 and not MN-3 and so that seat is safe.
It's unfortunate that our Governor elect will be of the same party that our weak outgoing governor is from.
It's unfortunate that our Senators disregarded due process and innocence until proven guilty.
But hey, I had plans on moving to Northern Alabama to be with my boyfriend anyways, it just would've been nice for things to have gone differently with Minnesota's election but oh well.
At least we still control the senate and the blue wave was more of a blue trickle while there was more of a red resistance.

The Democrats taking back the house was a massive loss for the GOP. The Democrats can now essentially block everything that the GOP presents, its gridlock and that's a win for the left. The GOP can no longer pass tax cuts, make cut backs on Social Security/Medicaid, and will be able to add the checks and balances that the branches have been missing these past 2 years.
Democrats also have picked up a lot of governors but I'm not sure what the numbers are on that. Texas and Florida were really close senate races, Florida was about 1%

You realize that the loss of the house really isn't that big of a deal, right?
At the end of the day the Senate has more power.
For everyone it was a win/lose situation. I'm not gonna complain too much. I'm just disappointed that Minnesota is fucking retarded.
It was a blue trickle on red clay.
There's about 12 more house seats that are likely gonna be R seats and 8 more that are likely to be D seats.
If the final count is 227 D's to 205 RS.
Then all you guys got is just 52% in the house.
