Democrats took over the governorship of New Jersey and won the Governorship of Virginia decisively. That a Democrat could win New Jersey would have been no surprise. Virginia was supposed to be close, as Virginia usually alternates between governors after two terms. But this time the Democrat beat the usual trend.
Democrats swept statewide offices in Virginia and had won 13 of 17 seats in the Virginia House of Delegates that the Republicans now have an overwhelming majority in, with several seats undecided.
A state legislator who took pride in his homophobia lost to a transgender opponent.
Of course, Donald Trump is political poison in those two states. It is also only two states.
