The FUD is that no matter what "red state", the GOP will always have an easy go at it but if you are a blue or purple state, then Democrats "have a tough map" (even if it is CA ), where the bottom line, after all the propaganda crap spewed from that reporter's mouth, was that "3 seats" negate the other 17 seats that are almost shoo-ins (not counting the now 3-Is).

(129,977 posts)AZ should be "gray" (like KS and PA) with split control (including a (D) Governor, although in PA's case, we also gained one chamber of the state legislature).

(36,221 posts)I can only find one updated map that describes your outcomes, but it won't upload. Oh well, I tried.

(129,977 posts)but you can just do a count using the state websites.
OREGON
Oregon Governor (D)
Oregon State House Democrats
Oregon State Senate Democrats
NEVADA
Nevada Governor (D)
Nevada State Assembly
Nevada State Senate
(can sort by party above to make it easier to count)

(129,977 posts)And that map had mentioned the 4 "new ones" (but not counting OR and NV that already were before but reconfirmed it once the races were settled). I just looked at an "older" Ballotpedia map (although it claimed the date was as of December 15 but I bet that is just automatically generated date) that indicated "14 Democratic trifectas" but didn't include Michigan or Minnesota, both of which flipped control in a chamber.
