Not to want to rain on the parade, but there were four MO lege seats up in tonight’s Special, and, despite the major vote swings , Republicans still won two, the Dem one (the fourth is still undecided AFAICT) That Dems can win (and that voters will shift parties in discernible numbers) in ruby-red districts like in Missouri, is certainly a good sign - especially in the face of big GOP spending on what would otherwise be “safe” seats - but the bottom line is still going to be how many Dems actually get elected and seated next January. And despite the Republicans’ burgeoning unpopularity, it’s still an uphill trek.
