If GOP loses Congress next year it is their fault.

State houses - not U.S., but still an important harbinger.

Gerrymandering by judicial fiat is my guess as to what happened.

Can’t wait until Trump signs DACA and officialises permanent Democrat control at all levels.

Ever see articles like this one when the Republicans were winning hundreds of state races? Me either.
The MSM, and especially cnn, is just a bunch of propagandists.

Democrats have won 6 GOP-held seats in 2017. Republicans have won 0 Democratic seats. State seats, meaning they are irrelevant. Republicans control more state legislatures now than they ever have.
Of course CNN is going to distort this into pushing their narrative.

This is 6 out of what....1000 seats?
Depends on if it changed the majority in the state. Otherwise merely a popularity vote.
To: DiogenesLamp
I’m pretty sure they have LOST FOUR Congressional seats since the election of Donald Trump.

Dems lost over 1000 seats to Republicans in the 2016 elections. Winning 6 seats in state elections...yawn.

Republicans refuse to legislate. One can only conclude that their paymasters use them to defeat issues US citizens want.

Or not. Statehouse races incredibly idiosyncratic.
I think my voter registration analysis are a much bigger harbinger of massive D losses.

One can make what they will or won't out of this, maybe it has something to do with Mitch and Ryan both being liars and weasels or maybe it hasn't.
One fact I'd like to offer is that the Oklahoma seat mentioned is in Norman, home of OU.
Not the sole sanctuary, but a stronghold of the left leaning population of the state. And it's OK for me to say that, btw.

Wow!
This amounts to maybe at the very most, a 0.2% increase across the nation for Dems in State Legislatures.

The NH GOP seat was a Democrat seat through 2012 and he won by about 200 votes (1,200 to 1,000). Trump won the district by 17 points because he has wide appeal in this area (working class) and the guy who won is very well known, the organizer of Bike Week in Laconia.
