Posted By: How May I Help You NC on October 24, 2014 Midterm Election Guide THE STORY There's a lot happening out there. We get it. That's why you have us. Just check out our Skimms on the big stuff below. NOT GETTING A PRESIDENT THIS YEAR, DON’T CARE. Good for you. But you still need to vote.

Aka it could push through its agenda, which Obama and the Dems have mostly blocked nationally for the last six years. Revenge is sweet. MORE: http://www.theskimm.com/skimm-guides/2014-...
