Did more liberal dems win in your local elections?
For your House, Senate and more local elections I'm curious about how it went in your area.I'm curious if the new voters and high turn out helped for progressives.

1. Our local Democrats aren't necessarily progressives
Many are Democrats in name only because the district is heavily Democratic. In 2006, I had the pleasure of helping to vote out an extremely corrupt Democratic district attorney. Hopefully, our local Democrats are cleaning up their act with the influx of new people.

2. no
ground zero of republican hell-ron reagan`s hometown...for the first time in years almost as many democrats voted in the primary as republicans and hillary won by 100 votes over barrack. . the local races were still dominated by the republicans because many positions did`t have a democrat running
