Democrats could flip control of several state legislatures in key battlegrounds in Tuesday's midterm elections, as Nate Silver said the latest rounds of polls from The New York Times point to a “blue tsunami.”
Republicans currently hold a majority of state legislatures. But Democrats are hopeful that could change on Election Day, when the GOP is facing increasingly difficult national headwinds fueled by President Donald Trump’s declining approval rating and voter frustrations with the state of the economy.
The latest ratings from Sabato’s Crystal Ball gave Democrats a chance of winning legislative majorities in states like Arizona, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin.
There are more than 6,000 legislative seats up for grabs, according to State Affairs. Nearly all states have an upper chamber, known as the state Senate, and a lower chamber, either the state House or Assembly. Currently, Democrats control 39 of those chambers, while Republicans control 56 chambers. Four others are either tied, nonpartisan or run by a bipartisan coalition. Democratic flips in these key races could have major implications for local and state policy issues over the coming years.
Newsweek reached out to the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee and the Republican State Leadership Committee for comment via email.

I’m skeered.
“Potential” “could”
Maps don’t vote, people vote. And Republicans are coming out very strong to block this “blue wave” that I don’t think is going to happen.
GA no way.

Newsweek’s record for election predictions is fairly dismal.
A blue tsunami will be very welcomed by many of our TDS FReepers. They can’t wait for our country to go down the tubes. They think we’ve hit bottom, but with Dems at the helm, they’ll soon realize there’s a bit more in the drop.
A fair amount of “conservatives” support open borders and always have. They won’t admit to it but they are. mad at Trump deportations.
Even more support off shoring jobs.
You keep posting how the Republicans are going to lose and then other people post about how they’re going to win.
I think it will be a split decision, Dem House , GOP senate. Thune will take all the credit. 😡
Newsweek. Need we say more.
There was a nonfiction book New Maps of Hell by Kingsley Amis. This future could go in a sequel.
To our friends and associates....
Get out and vote, people.
Kamala Harris is going to win Iowa.
You are correct.
Yeh, not likely in Georgia.
