I think it's about 2/3.

Also - the SOS in WI is already a Democrat. PA doesn't have one.

We have a Democratic SOS here in NC... but I think I've seen "cross-check" stories here.

Regardless... you are of course correct. To expand, we need to concentrate on state races (legislatures and executive branch positions). If Republicans control as many states as they do now come 2020... we're going to be in the wilderness for decades.
