** There are only SEVEN (7) states ** ** under unified Democratic Party control. ** “In what Democrats should take as a further bleak sign, four of the 11 states where they control both houses of the state legislature — Maryland, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Illinois — have a Republican governor. This leaves just seven states under unified Democratic Party control.” “Republicans have unified control of 25 states. Along with the usual set of tax cuts for high-income individuals and business-friendly regulations, the result has been: • An unprecedented wave of restrictions on abortion rights • The spread of union-hostile “right to work” laws into the Great Lakes states • New curbs on voting rights, to further tilt the electorate in a richer, whiter, older direction • Large-scale layoffs of teachers and other public sector workers who are likely to support Democrats” Democrats are in denial Matthew Yglesias October 19, 2015
