Barbara, As someone who follows virtually every battleground state, particularly when a trifecta or triplex is at stake, I’m well aware of the State gains, particularly in 22. Still Republicans have an undue advantage because of their laser-focus over decades of state and local elections.
.." Democrats, historically, have focused largely on federal elections..." comment by Krieger. Hence my response.
We have an opportunity in this comments forum. Many commenters are new, some are trolls. We can deliberately share the wealth of activism experience (such as your experience) to counter what I see as the effort to spread dystopian fear and hopelessness. Share your wisdom and knowledge Barbara Jo.
Barbara, My opening statement, which, by the way, is accurate, was the means I chose to amplify the immeasurable timeliness of Georgia’s comment. My follow-up sentence, you will note, amplified Democrat’s increasing understanding of the importance of defending democracy at the state and local levels.
As for you imploring me to “[s]hare [my]…wisdom and knowledge,” I would note I take great care only to post when I believe I have something meaningful to contribute.
The Democrats have changed their strategy. I invite you to look at their State gains in 2020 and 2022.
