Going into the 2022 midterm elections, Ds controlled 36 state legislative chambers; Rs controlled 62. Now, Ds control 40; Rs 56. (3 remain uncalled.)
It's the first time a prez's party has picked up state leg seats in the 1st-term midterms since *1934*. https://ballotpedia.org/Election_results,_2022:_State_legislatures
@drvolts that's a big deal! We got where we are because the GOP gradually took over the state Seats across American. It's how we're going to turn things around eventually.
@Tweetfiction @drvolts Now the GOP is really mad because they've been working at this for 40 years, with the intent to call a Constitutional Convention and rewrite the Constitution. And now they see all that work almost achieve the goal and now slipping from their fingers.
@situok @Tweetfiction @drvolts We'll find out in two years.
