21. Depends on our margins and our will

The more seats we flip blue the bigger the mandate will be for good changes to our country.

Look at what Biden was able to get done despite a very slim majority for part of his term and not even having congress for the other part. https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/fact-sheet-the-biden-harris-administration-record

Imagine that kind of progress except even better if we can flip more seats blue!

But also even if we flip a lot seats blue we should not just go home and say all is done. We must constantly monitor their actions and demand every single Trump goon who did illegal and corrupt things face real justice and we must demand better from all our politicians. Politics is more than just a one day event.
