It really will depend on turnout. Cobb County is already limiting the number of ballot collection boxes to half of what they made available during the prez election. The Republican sec of state is still a determined vote suppression aficionado.

And then, THEN, even if the Dems do win, there are enough right of center Democratic Senators to get in the way of even the most ambitious of Biden agendas, assuming he really even has any.

I'm glad Trump lost, but progressives have a long way to go before they can get excited about anything. I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but it is frustrating to watch this pendulum to the right swing so far during these last 40 years.

The pendulum isn't swinging back to the left, really. It's merely nudging ever so slightly back to the center, and it's not even really there yet.
