Those precincts I talked about where we went from sub 50, sub 40% turnout in 2016% to 60% turnout in this cycle. We need to make sure that we sustain [the increased voter turnout] for a very competitive, open seat gubernatorial race in 2022, for the reelection of Mark Kelly for a full term in the Senate in 2022, for a chance to retake or to actually take the corporation commission, the attorney general's office, to get a new bite at the Apple post redistricting in flipping the state house and the state senate. So there's a lot of work left to be done. Probably. Maybe today is our last day to celebrate before we roll our sleeves up and start to focus on the future. (06:54–07:21)
