Raimondo predicts more wins for Democratic governors

{Rhode Island} Gov. Gina Raimondo spoke to reporters Saturday in Washington in her role as the new chairwoman of the Democratic Governors Association, predicting more Democratic wins this year and next in more than a dozen gubernatorial races.

“The message from us is, we’re going to keep delivering ... with political wins because we have the wind at our backs, and we’re going to make [2019 and 2020] great years,” Raimondo said at the National Governors Association 2019 winter meeting.

Raimondo said there are three gubernatorial races this year and 11 in 2020. While some of those races are expected to be tight, “we plan to win,” she said.

Raimondo also noted that new Democratic governors are making policy achievements in their states.
