Some of this is incorrect. VA, WV, PA, MO, NH, MT should all be red.

It's basing it on governors too, I believe.

That's correct, IL, MD and MA also show as divided because of their Govs-elect.

Also, MA and IL Dems remain veto-proof, so shouldn't those states stay blue rather than grey?  Amazingly, the MD GOP can now sustain Hogan vetoes in the lower house!

Republican control of the West Virginia legislature is a first since the early 1930s, I believe.  I wonder which remaining Democratic legislature has been Democratic the longest.

Have Republicans ever won both houses in Maryland?  I doubt it.

Wow, Nevada Republicans have a nearly 2/3 advantage in the House? I knew they picked it up, but the margin surprises me.

Democrats surrendered in Nevada. It was a Red Wedding in every race.

Nevada Democrats Roll Eyes

I almost think the turnout collapse was a conscious plot by Reid to force Sandoval to either sign a bunch of right wing weirdness and lose his moderate image, or veto all the far right bills and lose the 2016 senate primary to an Angle clone.  Too ridiculous, or just cunning enough?

Surrendering now to live to fight another day doesn't seem like Reid's style -- he is a believer in always winning.

I don't know about that.  He had to be pressured hard into doing Obamacare.  Reid's on Reid's side.
