12. Ding Dong Chip Roy's overstating the situation.
Wed Nov 5, 2025, 06:16 PM

VA changes parties on its Gov every election.

Most of the Dem pickups were in local elections, not Federal level. Repukes never were going to win Mayor of NYC or Seattle.

They're building a Gerrymandered Firewall that will be fully operational next year. That might be enough to hold the House. Odds are extremely good they won't lose the Senate.
