The Red Wave Didn't Hit Statehouses in This Election
Briefly

Democrats largely held their ground in state legislative races, even achieving key victories in battlegrounds like Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Wisconsin despite a red wave at the federal level.
State legislative gains provide a crucial counterweight to the Trump administration's policies, offering Democrats a stronger platform to influence governance than in previous years.
With nearly 40 legislative majorities and 15 governing trifectas, Democrats are positioned to combat the adverse effects of MAGA federal policies effectively.
The investments Democrats made over the last decade are paying off, giving them more opportunities to address policy issues at the state level.
