The election experts at The Cook Political Report have UPGRADED ratings for Democrats

[elleng]

chances to win control over 8 state legislative chambers in states such as Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Michigan. This was their second major upgrade since this summer.

1. Wisconsin an Pennsylvania would be huge

Their state legislatures are fully radicalized right wing nut jobs

[yardwork]

10. North Carolina would be huge.

It's difficult to express what it would mean in NC after ten years of rightwing nutjob control, even though a majority of us are Democrats. The state is horribly gerrymandered.

18. So true! I'm in NC, and after the Koch brothers bought North Carolina' s

legislature, we've had some awful laws passed, and there have been protests,etc. They also raised taxes, which republicans are always saying they won't do. Plus they've increased "fees" on just about everything anyone needs to buy or renew.

We're going to have a LOT of work to do to UNdo what the tea-party, koch republicans have done to this state.

13. Wisconsin is a nightmare of nut jobs. But we do have a Dem Gov!

There were always some like Sensenbrenner and a few others. But the garbage that came in with the 2010 Teabaggers made it nut jobs on steroids. Scott Walker, Paul Ryan, and Ron Johnson to name three.

I will be one happy cheesehead if Wisconsin goes blue on Tuesday! Governor Evers (D), Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes (D), and A.G. Josh Kaul (D) could use some support for a change.

16. The same is true in Pennsylvania

We were gerrymandered to hell and back, but we're slowly gaining ground in PA.
Best of luck to Wisconsin Democrats!

20. That's good news! We were gerrymandered by the tea party in NC, too.

2. That is such good news! We have to get ahold of more state legislative branches

[Bernardo de La Paz]

3. State legislatures draw district lines and gerrymander it, especially if R or tR-controlled. Census

The 2020 census will change some allocations and it is a big win if Democrats can take control of state legislatures.

4. as long as people vote we win every time

7. Boom boom cha boom boom cha boom boom cha

We will we will rock you!

8. I would love seeing the Michigan legislature turn blue. They've done nothing but be

childish, vindictive, and throwing roadblocks at everything that Governor Whitmer is proposing. They're way past their expiration date.

9. Happy Birthday, elleng!

Enjoy your special day!🎂

[elleng]

17. Thanks, gadem,

but you're 3 months early!

[Thunderbeast]

11. Great news for redistricting.

Undo the abuses of PROJECT REDMAP in 2010.

14. This is what is needed....

I mean, I'm watching "electoral-vote.com" on a daily basis...and I'm nervous as hell. Looks like VP Biden/Harris have it in the bag...and we have 53 Senate seats in our favor, with one tie; but i won't believe it until I see it....and the rabid cult is going to vomit all over America when/if this happens. This is not one of America's finest moments. We are standing at the cliff of democracy, and this fascist pig and his minions of stooges is doing everything in their power to push us over the edge.

God help us!

15. State Legislatures are huge! That sets the stage for congressional representation too

[vercetti2021]

19. Hoping Texas too

State house is extremely important here

21. Let's BURY this MF'er
