If the democrats and the republicans are all the same uniparty, then what does it matter? According to the Revealed Gospel of Fustakrakich, it's just more populace-distracting moving of deck chairs.
If the democrats and the republicans are not all the same uniparty, then it matters because we might actually see policy shifts, especially if this heralds a 2022 massacre.
Or does it matter because we should expect fewer nazi saluting tiki torch marches, and more intensely peaceful demonstrations?
Does it matter because the progressives couldn't drag the centrists, kicking and screaming into their lair?
Or does it matter because the centrists stonewalled the progressives beating drums for the aggrieved and bleeding lumpenproletariat?
Why does this matter? Or doesn't it, after all? Help us, Obi-Fusta-Krakich, you're our only guide.

This just brings us back to the parties really being what, in a proportional representation system, would have been coalitions. The democrats in Congress range from Jayapal to Sinema, and the republicans from Snowe to Gaetz.
If what the democrats have won't unite their coalition, or a chunk of their coalition plus a chunk of the republican coalition, it's just a pipe dream and we all know this. So what you're really saying is idealism-schmidealism, they need to find proposals that can pass, or just keep the wheels turning.

Well, let's see, first, under Article 1 Section 4 of the constitution, they would ensure universal suffrage for all citizens over the age of 18 years old, then maybe they could redirect financial industry subsidies (that 120 billion a month) towards the national infrastructure and universal health care, they could end prohibition... so many things they could do.. why don't you name a few?

Beats me, you're the one with the heavy critique.
I'm pretty sure that there's already universal suffrage, unless you're complaining about fraud?
Universal health care is a sorely debated point, and many parts of it are contentious. What kind of universal health care model did you have in mind? PPACA?

Until a few days ago, McAuliffe was thought to get a sure win. But then concern stated building among parents that theories born in academia out of communism and racism were infiltrating school systems. Especially in western Virginia, were the inhabitants are the designated victims of this new and virtuous racism. The "transgender" rapist story in genteel, rich, virtuous, deep state, Democrat Loudoun County didn't help. The extra turnout of voters in the west could not be fixed by massaging numbers in the east. And so the Republican won.
What's up with the Lieutenant Governor's office there? Is that a separate ticket from the Governor's office? Virginia now has its first black, female, immigrant Lt. Governor. She's Republican.
In New Jersey, Governor Masks and Lockdowns looks like he will get to serve another term. One wonders how, with the rising prices, shortages and destruction of businesses and lives that Democrat policies have brought, many suburbanites are still voting for them. But I'll bet it was a lack of just a bit of extra effort in rural counties to get the vote out, that gave the incumbent another term.
In my district, turnout was heavy, with many people concerned about taxes and education. But in the end, the majority in this rich suburb of academic families voted Democrat again. Here, where school students got a year of zoom for the teacher's "safety", while the teachers were out making big bucks on the side working as private in-person tutors for rich parents' kids.

Yep. Lt. Governor in VA is a totally separate election race from the governor election. You do not vote for "governor+Lt. Governor" as a package. You have one line item for Governor, and a second vote line item for Lt. Governor.
Which just goes to show how much racism really exists in Republican voters. If the Republicans were as racist as many on the left here make them out to be, Virginia would not have it's first black, female, immigrant Lt. Governor.
