2NC/1NR – HOW DO I EXTEND? TIPS: 1)EVALUATE YOUR STRATEGIC CHOICES AFTER THE 2AC. IS IT MORE EFFICIENT TO MAKE STRATEGIC CONCESSIONS THAN KNOWING YOU WOULD HAVE TO INVEST MORE TIME TO WIN? OR DO YOU HAVE ANOTHER CHOICE? 2)POST DATE IS YOUR FRIEND. 3)COVER UP HOLES WITH DIVERSITY AND NUANCES. 3)SET THE STAGE FOR THE 2NR – EARLY IMPACT ASSESSMENT. 4)HOW DOES THE ELECTIONS IMPACT INTERACT WITH THE PLAN ADVANTAGES? POSSIBLY READ MORE IMPACTS??? WHY WOULD READING MORE IMPACTS IN THE 2NC/1NR BE A BAD IDEA???

OTHER THOUGHTS/KEY TERMS WHO WINS THE CONGRESS? HOW DOES THAT AFFECT THE AGENDA? COATTAILS? RUN A CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION DISAD? HOW DOES THE PLAN IMPACT THE MAKEUP OF THE CONGRESS? RUN AN ELECTION DISAD THAT IS BASED ON THE PREMISE THAT ONE SPECIFIC STATE IS KEY. EQUILIBRIUM ELECTIONS DISAD???
