In 2014, I actually expected the Democrats to narrowly hold the Senate.

In 2016, at least before October, I had the firm belief not only Trump would lose in a landslide, but that he would drag down many Republicans in congress as well. I never thought Ron Johnson had a chance to hang on.

In 2018, I expected Bill Nelson to win but was unsure whether Democrats would really win back the House.

In 2020, I greatly underestimated Republicans. I thought Democrats would expand their House majority and not come close to losing it. Also expected Tillis and Collins to go down.

In 2022, I underestimated the effects of Dobbs and thought it would be more of a 2018 in reverse.


It actually sucks that most of the time I expected a better outcome than we got.
