Democrats Looks for Big Gains In the States
October 11, 2018 at 8:05 am EDT By Taegan Goddard
“Bolstered by an unpopular Republican president and favorable winds in suburban districts, Democrats see a golden opportunity to win back hundreds of state legislative seats across the country, rebuilding a bench decimated by midterm election results in 2010 and 2014,” The Hill reports.
“The favorable conditions represent the Democratic Party’s first chances to claim some control over the decennial redistricting process, which begins after the 2020 Census.”
