It’s still too close, but that’s just how our (shitty) system works. Most seats aren’t going to flip. Alabama will always vote Republican and California will always vote Democrat, so our focus is really only on the close races.
We gained 25 seats in the House, seven in the Senate and five governors. That’s a huge swing.
News agencies are calling this a historic blowout, but from an external onlookers perspective, isn’t this really close?

Just want to point out that they used to say that Texas would always vote Republican. Now look at it.
2/7 bama house seats went blue actually.
What about when CA was red mere decades ago? Always? Things flip and change and come and go.
If Dems don’t cater to the working class, angry disenfranchised people will continue voting out of frustration.
I dunno man union workers tend to get a lot of benefit from the Dems and half of them still vote republican.
We don’t need catering to we need education.
Education is a factor but don’t boil it down to blue collar dudes all being uneducated oafs either
As a German laymans pov:

Here’s a more updated version:

Beautiful
Blowout? There is like a 5% difference, or am I reading it wrong?
Historically it is a blowout relative to the usual margins
