2. GOP State Legislature Control

For the first time in history since World War II, the Democratic party has lost twice the average number of seats lost by the political party of an outgoing president. Democrats experienced a net loss of 958 seats in the state Senates and Houses, the largest since the 1940’s. Only over 20 states, most of them small states on either coast, currently have a Democratic majority.

3. Map of Partisan Distribution of State Governors

Despite having a Democratic president, the Republicans are leading the majority of the states with 31 Republican state governors – the greatest number in several generations. 60% of the country’s population have Republicans in their governor’s office. Only 18 states have governors who are Democrats, with one state being led by an independent candidate supported by the Democrats.
