democratic vote is more concentrated so republicans can win more state house and senate seats while losing the overall vote.
also, off-year elections skew older, which favors republicans.
unfortunately for republicans there are lots of states where democrats can literally win the state in a Presidential election by only winning a single county (Nevada, Illinois, Washington) and a lot of other states where it's possible for democrats to win while only winning < 20% of the counties (New York, Virginia, Florida, Pennsylvania, Michigan, etc.).
