We won around here and everyone I know is running around like Democrats are losers. We won because we work at this all the time, this isn't a hobby.

I don't want to get into a fight over this - I hear what you're saying, I do and after January when you're running for Board we can talk more about this (I'm thinking about doing a podcast)

The Suburban Cook county results alone show that sure we won but lost more ground. In an election like this, with Donald Trump on the ballot, I find this incomprehensible. How are we losing ground to a guy we're calling a fascist. I think this alone is worth some navel gazing by the party.

Lost more ground yes, but I point to mail and rain again. In the few bellweathers that had to be really worked, like the state house races against Grant and McLaughlin, we might even be gaining seats.

We all locally spent as many hours and resources in WI and MI as we could because we are over 50%+1 and wanted to get the White House. Don't conflate that with the national failure is my point.
