Rick Hasen: “If, as it appears likely, we have a Republican President, Senate, House and Supreme Court, policy and law will shift sharply to the right. Putting aside what that would look like on the merits, it does give us something we have not had in our system of divided government: a chance for a single party to govern and be held responsible and accountable by the voters. Gone would be arguments about the other party obstructing.”
“It is a very different world than the gridlock we have seen.”
More from Hasen: Trump would get 2-4 appointments to the Supreme Court.
