I have absolutely no idea. And that's just the thing: we're in a crazy new place where we have no firm grasp of what could happen next. The Republicans are two million votes down but still claiming a mandate and nobody has ever revoked a national park before, but we've never had a president this unqualified before. I know what I can do locally. I can buttress up my local organizations. But I tell you what - for all external appearances, we're dialed. Rob Bishop? 65% of the vote. When you look at the candidate the Dems fielded, it isn't particularly surprising.
