 What is really important to understand here is if this 10+ point swing in rural areas across the nation can be sustained in the midterm elections all the GOP gerrymandering goes out the window, and can actually work against them. Gerrymandering works by taking 'safe' GOP districts and moving some of the voters to Democrat leaning districts. With a 10+ point swing this can actually result in the GOP loosing both districts.

Why Democrats Won Big >>> Economic Injustice Perhaps the final straw was destroying the White House to make way for a grand golden ballroom while stopping food assistance for the poor, but on Tuesday the nation signaled it is fed up with the out of control Economic Injustice. Economic Justice is the principle that the economy should be administered fairly, and not be a piggy bank for the rich and powerful. When Economic Injustice becomes too extreme citizens react, like we saw this week. 1/3 image
