... 75% of All Americans Will Have Democratic Governors ...

The real question becomes ...

What will those Governors do for the people they serve?

Stated differently, will those Governors be able to retain the support of those who put them into office?

Will this year's Blue Tsunami fizzle in 2028 because the Democrats might be viewed as just more politicians, just like the MAGA?

Time will tell.

All they have to do is ask their constituents what are the priorities in their lives, what do they need help with.
I could fill up a Governor's afternoon just with my own thoughts and needs and I am just a single old man...I cannot imagine the stresses that young families face as they try to get their family through the school year.
It is a big thing just to let the poor and powerless know that someone high in political office is listening.
