If you are not talking about this election in "Watergate Election"-level terms, you're not accurately portraying what happened on Tuesday.
This is, not just metaphorically but also numerically, a shift as big as the Watergate election, where Dems picked up 48 seats.
As of now, with Dems' leads, they would pick up 45 seats.
On the Senate side, moreover, Dems are picking up more seats than the 5 Dems gained in the Watergate election.

Agree. And at a personal level, it is just incredibly refreshing.
Lots of the most prominent members of the Dem class of 2026 are now just stating plainly, over and over, that they feel no obligation to perform rituals of civility for odious scumbags.
It's a tectonic shift in political messaging, and one with—it seems to me—real policy implications.

Governor-elect Amy Acton: We can’t normalize behavior like this. It was so beyond the pale, so no, I have no intention of speaking to him. Leaders’ words matter and we need to hold folks accountable.

Democrats winning doesn't mean the playing field was level
Texas geography favors Dems—I estimate gerrymandering cost them ~10 seats statewide:
2 in Austin’s suburbs
2 in Houston’s suburbs
6 in the Dallas-Fort Worth suburbs
Many folks are considering only the 6 seats the GOP failed to win—not how many more they should’ve lost when getting routed statewide

Not sure enough attention is being paid to how well the Texas gerrymander worked for Republicans. Democratic vote share rose 12 pts; they won the popular vote 53-47. But they only gained one seat and the delegation is still 24-14 Republicans. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Un...

the level of dishonesty in UK journalism is astounding.
Honestly the guardian archive is a treasure trove. Despite minimising Brand’s involvement over 11 years as ‘once wrote sports column’ a 2014 readers editor intervention deals with readers’ complaints about acreage of space devoted to brand Brand. (Oh five years after the sports blog stopped).

![Stephen Miller's Promotion Angers Industries Reeling From Immigration

Summary by Bloomberg Al
• Industries that rely heavily on immigrant labor decried
President Donald Trump's promotion of Stephen Miller to chief of staff.
• The elevation of Stephen Miller left some leaders of groups representing the agriculture and construction sectors
"gobsmacked" due to his role in deportations.
• Leaders of industries reliant on undocumented workers said they are hopeful that a Democratic-controlled Congress will create opportunities for bipartisan legislation to pass changes to immigration.

(Washington Post) -- Industries that rely heavily on immigrant labor decried President Donald Trump's promotion of his chief architect of deportations on Friday, just days after millions of Americans signaled anger about such policies.

![Matt Teagarden, chief executive of the Kansas Livestock Association, said he was worried about what Miller's promotion could mean.
"The potential for the president to sign [any immigration bill] may have gone down with Miller being named chief of staff," he said.
"Doubling down on Miller to the extent that he has been the promoter of mass-deportation tactics doesn't fit the results that we saw in Kansas on Tuesday," he added.
Rural counties and small cities in Kansas swung 20 points toward Democrats on Tuesday, helping elect the first Democrat to the Senate since 1932.
In September, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations near major meatpacking plants delayed cattle livestock operations, shipments and harvesting in southwest Kansas.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:pnx2fjuannbdpy3337ggthpp/bafkreib4sfddla3njr5xwamhcpfbgv2eoxrq64oifyxoasp44uat6545ji)
