Early Returns

So far Bernie Sanders is projected to become the next Senator from Vermont. The Senate just got more progressive without losing a seat. Here we see Jim Jeffords - an ex-Republican who caucused with the Democrats - replaced by Bernie Sanders, a Socialist who will caucus with Democrats.

Already swinging to the left.

Incidentally, I do remember faintly when Jeffords announced his retirement that some of the smugger Republicans considered this seat in play.
