How the media plays down Democratic Party successes in favor of the Republicans. The media isn't always on our side. The large mainstream media is owned by the 1% or close to it. So why would they be our cheerleaders. They're historically boosters of Republicans. Most of daytime MSNBC is a wasteland imo.
Moving along - Here in Jefferson County the R county clerk lost to the Dem. Even the Dem Treasurer candidate won. No doubt a result of voters going straight ticket. The CO SOS race was one that had me hand wringing and the Dem won that, too, thank goodness. It gives me confidence that we can work towards an even better electorate turnout two years from now.
To me, it feels like we'll be picking weeds that are left in the flower beds. We've cleaned out a bunch of impediments to healthy elections. But we have some more work to do ( cough - Cory Gardner - cough) and then the big job of maintaining will always be there. The R Party has been weakened but they'll regroup.
