Progressives should be careful not to get comfortable. There is work to be done Democrats had a great midterms result. Big wins in Ohio, Georgia, Iowa, Maine and Texas show the potential for a majority coalition that reaches well beyond traditional liberal strongholds.

Surveys showed that the economy was the top issue for the election, with a third of voters citing cost-of-living concerns as their number one issue, and nearly 40% of voters claiming their personal financial situation has worsened over the past year. It’s clear that voters don’t approve of Donald Trump’s economic management.
