I don’t think you should say “we won” in the political context, ever. That’s not how it works. You were *elected*. The people decided to put you there, so that you can, you know… do things. Politicians act like “the race” is their job, and winning is the endgame.

It does feel a bit like saying you won high school by finishing with a good admission index score for University. It's irrelevant essentially immediately after you've used it to get enrolled. What's _next_?
