Senate votes to reinstate net neutrality

You are pretending that a 'wave election' is a thing that people decide to do, instead of a label applied after the fact as a descriptive aid after the occurrence of the circumstances you describe. In other words, this is circular logic.

In practice, heavily-gerrymandered districts rarely swing parties, and when they do, they almost always swing back.

You are pretending that there aren't circumstances that have an observed relation to systematic deviations from median election results that people can observe to understand that a wave election is more likely to happen in a particular election.

I'm not pretending it: I'm asserting it.

And if it doesn't hold, let there be runtime errors!
