In the very near future and in the aftermath of this election, I do believe all efforts to question vote stealing should be followed through with, especially that surrounding Beto's great campaign. I won't say that my heart is broken by that one, as others have dwelt upon, but if he doesn't do anything, it will break my heart.

I hope Nancy Pelosi doesn't take credit for the wins, and be aware that some of her proteges and apparatchiks waiting int he wings may not be much better. I do like Ben Lujan who may become #4 in the House leadership, and I know he will continue to be a star in attracting the direly needed undervoting Hispanic voters.

I also foresee regrettably that both House and Senate Democrats will be among the harshest critics of potentially disastrous Supreme Court decisions, and there are some things brewing that are VERY SCARY.
