++Dirty Money won huge!
++Jerry Brown won.
++Andrew Cuomo won.
++Unbelievably, Sam Brownback,LePage,Scott, and Walker won.

++Older white Americans over 65 won big. They were 30% of the turnout over 12% for millenials.
++Climate Change won huge. The GOP will try to roll back regulations on fossil fuel. They have 61 votes in the Senate to pass the Keystone XL Pipeline.

++AS Sam Wang noted at the end of last night, the GOP ran 5% above their polling. As he had noted earlier, the polls in mid-terms would be off for one side or the other by 50%.
++Extremism won big. It is hard to see a "moderate" in the bunch elected to the Senate.
++Women as politicians won. There will be 100 women in the House of Representatives for the first time in our history.
