Reid Wilson: “Leading up to Election Day, Democrats touted their chances of winning back key seats in Republican-held state legislatures around the country. Recapturing territory in states such as Texas, North Carolina and Pennsylvania could help the party lock in political power for a decade. If Democrats achieved this in enough districts, they could have averted their fate after the 2010 tea party wave.”
“This week, they blew it. Instead of cementing congressional control for a decade, Democrats’ majority is now at future risk.”
