State Governments

| 0 Comments
If you are looking for state government results, the National Conference of State Legislatures has some handy pages:
      Legislature Party Control Switch
      Legislature Party Control
      Party Control of State Government (Governor and Both Houses)
      State Governor

The "switch" page shows that 11 states have changed to Republican control of both houses, while Iowa has changed to divided.  North Carolina and Alabama are in Republican control for the first time since Reconstruction.  Memo to NC Republicans:  Bill Number 1 should be to repeal the Death Penalty Racial Quota Act.

In New England, Republicans were considered an endangered species recently, but they are now in control of both houses of the Maine and New Hampshire Legislatures.

The "control" page is showing New York, Washington, and Oregon as undecided. Danny Hakim reports in the NYT, "Based on the results through 11 a.m., the Senate would be split 31-31, but that includes the three races that remain undecided, leaving the ultimate outcome uncertain."
