Best results when GOP controls at least one chamber of Congress.
Worst results when Dems control both.

The Chair of the Maricopa Board of Supervisors, a lifelong Republican, had this to say:
"Over the past couple of decades, on average it takes 10 to 12 days to complete the count. That's not because of anything Maricopa County has decided to do, that's because of how Arizona law is set up. And that's what we do here at Maricopa County, we follow the law to make sure that the count is accurate."

Let the plaintive bleating begin
I don't think it is at all difficult to suss out. The election was a referendum on Trump, et al. People were ready for a change, but we did not offer one they wanted.

I think the challenge is that it seems like the weirdest of both parties get elected. Some have suggested that gerrymandering is responsible for that. I'm not sure if it is that or having to whore for dollars - but there are frightfully few candidates that even appear to warrant positive excitement. It is more voting against an even bigger fool.

POTUS told us democracy was at risk.
It was. Be glad that the POTUS had the foresight to sound the alarm, be glad that a large enough portion of the electorate heeded the warning and rose to defend democracy. After all, the maintenance of democracy requires vigilance.
