Elections are less than two months away. You have the entire NJ statehouse (currently Dem supermajority) up as well as an open governor's seat to finally bring a trifecta.

In VA, you have an open governor's seat and the house of delegates up. Currently the GOP has a 17? seat majority.

Lastly there's a special election in WA that will decide who controls the state senate.
