And it brings new hope to other Southern states (ya know, the ones Bernie said we should ignore). My state chair is ON IT already with this email:

Senator-elect Doug Jones proved tonight that we can win in the South.

We have to focus on kitchen table issues. We have to speak to the decency of the people of South Carolina. We have to believe that we can win.

That last bit is the most important. If we believe we can win, we’ll put a candidate up in every Republican-held seat in the State House. If we believe we can win, we will elect Democrats to statewide offices in South Carolina again.
