[0:00] one in Arizona, one in California that

[0:01] today the Democrats are already picking

[0:03] up. Then if you look at what we have out

[0:05] there in open seats, huge opportunities

[0:07] for us all over the country in in

[0:09] Tennessee. Uh you look at Maryland, huge

[0:11] opportunity for us. And then in we have

[0:13] obviously incumbents in trouble in
