The Presidential race is flashy, but most of American policy — most of what impacts our daily lives — will be dictated by who controls the legislature.
Don’t Stay Home on Election Day, Even if You Won’t Vote for President

Extremely important point and an easy one to forget during this onslaught of WTF.

Hopefully beneath the million decibels of crazy flows a quiet undercurrent of relative less crazy among our candidates for legislature.

Checks and balances could be our saving grace during this presidency. We don’t want the branches “working together” like they did during President Obama’s reign — this time around it is crucial the system work the way it was designed to.

Fingers crossed.
