I tend to view state legislatures as analogous to the AA and AAA farm system in Major League Baseball.
They are great training grounds for players who want to move up to the ‘Show’ in DC.
However, it is vitally important to rack up victories in these ‘minor league’ arenas as well

Good analogies. They are canaries in the coal mine, which I willfully ignored in 2018.
