So you, because you don't want to win it and then you go, oh, once again in the minority. Dang it. No. Great question. Yeah, I think it's a pretty small number of seats right now given recent, I believe there was a Republican congressman who passed away and the margin gets smaller. But given how Republican leaning this seat has been historically, I think if I win this election, it's going to mean a lot of other Democrats won elections too, and there's going to be a majority.
