More Governor Races Shift Towards Democrats

Cook Political Report: “Democrats remain in an increasingly strong position to regain a majority of governorships for the first time since 2010. With President Donald Trump and Republicans’ standing deteriorating across the country — and with a strong crop of Democratic recruits running solid campaigns — even some states that Trump won by a huge margin deserve new consideration.”

“Alaska is the most notable of these shifts, moving from Toss Up to Lean Democrat, with Democrats well-positioned to flip the open governorship. And three states are moving out of the Solid Republican column into Likely Republican: Nebraska, Oklahoma and Vermont.”
