They'd be equal in the wash there.

But my concern there is that the Texas maps rely heavily upon the Hispanic vote.

And you mentioned galvanized.

Well, if we don't deliver, if the economy doesn't deliver, if we don't see some of these policies actually materialize and we don't message effectively on it, then we could lose

The Hispanic vote, and we could go backwards on that to, you know, 2016, 2020 levels, in which case some of those house seats in Texas are up for grabs again.

And we have to be very cognizant of that.

So we need states like Indiana.

We need states like Nebraska and Kansas and Florida.

We need Ohio.

We need all of those states to get on board and see the urgency.

We have not written that off.

And the ballot chasing is going to be key, Steve.

But, you know, I think back to 2024 where Democrats still put more investment into canvassing than Republicans.

But why did it not work?

Because they had a terrible message and a terrible candidate.

You can only do so much through canvassing and ballot chasing, as we call it.

But it's critically important, especially since we sort of with this realignment under Trump.

Now, we have the low propensity party and we need to chase those ballots.

That's key.

But if we are not galvanizing the electorate, they're going to they're going to close the door in our face.
