This seems to be a shift from historical norms too. I seem to remember conservatives having a distinct advantage in mid terms bc turnout went down for liberals.
A French government official said that "the security of the world cannot depend on the whims of the voters in Wisconsin"... Unfortunately that's kinda where we are.
It's encouraging that, "...the Wisconsin results suggest that some people are changing their minds in response to political stimuli."
I'm concerned with, "... [the] willing[ness] to quickly make huge changes to public policy and otherwise wield political power in unprecedented ways." We saw this from the Reps in the 2024 election with the complete sea change to support the state abortion referenda. Something tells me that folks are going to have to stay on their toes.

Fascinating, GEM. And you rightly close with the big "IF." That "IF" could be in 72-point type.
