The "Republican Sweep" happened because so few bothered to vote.

In particular the polling results show that 18-25 YO lazy-ass millennials were too busy on Instagram to get up off their asses and vote. Hopefully they'll be out for the 2016 Presidential but I, for one, don't trust them.

The GOP has complete control in 23 states now too.

The (former) head of the Dem party here got the boot and got humiliated, I heard clips of his rant. Chris Redfern. Prolly on YT. Let the excuse agreements begin

It's a damn shame 2/3 didn't vote, the Republicans gain would have been greater…
