Last night, in races across the country, health care proved to be among the most decisive issues. It won in Maine, where the Affordable Care Act was on the ballot for the first time and Medicaid expansion was decisively approved. It won in the Virginia gubernatorial race, where it was the number one issue on the minds of voters. It played an important role in the New Jersey gubernatorial race. It won in numerous Virginia House of Delegates races. And it won across the country, helping those who are pro-health care expansion win races in New Hampshire, Florida and Georgia.

As the political analysts and reporters on cable and local news noted, health care is a winning issue for Democrats. This Protect Our Care video shows just how important an issue it is.
