CALGARY—Woke is back, baby! By the time you read this, every data centre in America will have become a Planned Parenthood, Pete Hegseth will have started taking estrogen supplements, Americans will have started taking mandatory Arabic while reciting Sharia Law, and every woman will have already had three free abortions. Meanwhile, reparations payments from white Americans will have been garnished from their wages, while working in a chain gang on the shores of the Gulf of the International Proletariat. 

Last night, after two years of hate and hopelessness, American voters sent a decisive message not only to the White House, but also to the world. At the time of writing (1:30 a.m. ET Wednesday), the American midterm elections delivered a Democratic deluge that wiped out Republican majorities in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. According to preliminary results, Democrats lead the House, 219 to 126 (218 needed for a majority), while the Senate has reached a Democratic majority of 53 seats to 41 for the Republicans (50 needed for a majority). This is what a vote for change looks like. The Democrats:

Flipped Texas for both governor and senate;

Flipped both Carolinas (including Lindsey Graham’s old Senate seat) and Iowa;

Won their first Kansas Senate seat since 1932, care of Adam Hamilton;

Elected the first Black woman as Georgia’s governor, Keisha Lance Bottoms;

Elected the first Black governor in Wisconsin, David Crowley;

Elected Nevada’s first Black governor, Aaron D. Ford;

Elected the first Hispanic governors in both California and Texas, Xavier Becerra and Gina Hinojosa, respectively; 

Elected the first Native American governor, Deb Haaland;

Elected the first Native American senator, Peggy Flanagan from Minnesota;

Led in Mississippi (by 28 votes at time of writing) and Alaska; and

Got rid of Susan Collins in Maine, and elected the first Muslim-American senator with Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan.
