Thank God Boebert lost. Can't fucking stand her smug face.She hasn’t lost yet. 90% votes counted and she’s only back like 4k votes.
I think there's going to be a lot of contested elections in several states. So I would prepare for a lot of uncertainty for a few weeks afterward at a minimum.
Which, depending on political goals, some might count as a win. One the best ways to "prove" to the public that democracy is broken is to fuck up the execution of it so bad that the ability to govern soundly breaks down. When daily governance breaks down enough, people start acting in ways they "have to." Both at the citizen and elected official level, those are the noises people will start making. And whoever is in power when they declare that the system has broken down is now ruling by default.
The new Congress doesn't take office until January for this exact reason. The idea of knowing all the outcomes on Election Night is a very new one. Like, within living memory new. Having to wait weeks to find out who won is a normal and expected result, which the system is built around.
