Information thread on state legislatures and Governors [View all]

I think this would be a handy thing to have as a reference. Maybe some other site already has it, but it seems like we should be able to create such a guide using the power of our group. My idea is that DUers from various states can post about their state until we have all 50 states.

So a reply would look like this:

KANSAS - Republican Governor (up in 2014)

Kansas House 92 Republican, 33 Democrat
Kansas Senate 32 Republican 8 Democrat (up again in 2016)

then other states will check in, hopefully
