Gov. Andy Beshear (Kentucky) and Gov. Laura Kelly (Kansas) accomplishing the impossible by winning two terms in their respective states while being unabashed Democrats.

Can we overlay this with which states are taking more money than they are giving?

How Virginia elected a racist who ran on critical race theory is beyond me..

I’m curious why Vermont voted for both Bernie and a GOP governor

FWIW, Virginia will have a democrat in the governor’s office come January.

The most popular governor of any state is Phill Scott, who is a Republican governor of Vermont, a state that overwhelmingly votes Democrat in the presidential election and sends leftist firebrand Bernie Sanders to the Senate. The most popular Democrat governor, who is also the third most popular governor is Andy Beshear of Kentucky. Kentucky is one of the most solidly republican states in the presidential election.

NH deplores our shitty (R) governor. She’s so useless.

colorado’s blue voters are predominantly in metro denver and boulder counties – but they are where the population is. the agriculture and rural counties – much of the remainder of the state – are more red and generally ignored. my county produces tons of tax on oil and agriculture and the majority of our state managed roads are in disrepair. seems like ours is a service colony.
and before anyone gripes, there are additional fees on super heavy vehicles (coil tubing trucks, etc) to help with road maintenance costs. doesn’t keep up.

Interesting… Democrats on the Pacific can’t drive to the Atlantic without going through Republican territory – Republicans on the Atlantic can’t drive to the Pacific without going through Democratic territory – Democrats on the Atlantic can’t drive to the Pacific without going through Republican territory – and Republicans on the Pacific can’t drive anywhere without going through Canada…

Our Governor in AZ was our Secretary of State before this and ran a pretty unremarkable campaign, but she ran against lunatic local TV Host Kari Lake, who isn’t fit to govern an abandoned Walmart let alone a U.S. state.
