It's election night recap time, and Thomas and Lydia fly state to state checking in on the anti-woke villains WTW has covered in the past: Ken Paxton and Dan Patrick in Texas, Vivek Ramaswamy for Ohio's Governor, Susan Collins's Senate streak in Maine, voter ID measures across the country, James Lindsay's smug "Woke 2.0" prediction, and even Oklahoma. Not everything went the right way...but overall? A very, very good night to be woke.
