 No matter who wins, congress will still spend the next years fighting with each other instead of working together to create good things for the citizens. The prediction is that the younger Indigos who are “lurking” in Congress right now, and who are observing all this dysfunction, will work towards younger, wiser, and more benevolent candidates for the future. This is good news, but there are still those currently who will argue that their choice this year will change the country immediately (it won’t - and can’t with the energy that is currently there of non-cooperation in Congress). Even good legislation will be fought by the other side... just because it’s the other side. Dysfunction for all of us is the result, no matter what side of the aisle. The “Emergence of the Indigos” is coming.
