Oh I'm not saying a new Congress is necessarily different, just that its an unknown and not a certainty.

But without looking at the numbers, another 4 vote swing puts the one state, one vote, majority with the Dems.

Its possible Corona shifts the down ballot in the Dems favor.

Again, not saying it's going to happen, I have no idea. Just looking for certainty in process in there uncertain times.
