CRYSTAL BALL GUBERNATORIAL RATING CHANGES (as seen first in @playbookdc this morning)
VA Leans D to Likely D
ME Likely D to Leans D
IA Likely R to Leans R
In 1998 Incumbent Texas Governor, George Bush won re-election by 37 points. This is the largest victory for a republican in Texas. Bush would run for President two years later.
The 1985 mayoral election in Cleveland, Ohio saw incumbent Republican George Voinovich face Gary Kucinich, brother of Dennis.
While Voinovich’s reelection victory was not surprising, the coalition that brought Voinovich success certainly was.
The 2018 PA-18 Special Election, a contest between Prosecutor Conor Lamb, and State Rep. Rick Sacconne following the resignation of Tim Murphy saw the first congressional special election pickup of the 2017-2018 season in a seat won by Donald Trump by 20%.
With Paige Cognetti’s announced run for Congress I’m re-upping her very impressive 2019 mayoral win where she — likewise to her current 2026 run — ran against corruption.

After the original 2010s GOP gerrymander was struck down by the PA SC, the court drew a map that essentially evened out the delegation. There was a great deal of shifting, but in the end result was a net gain of 3 seats for Dems.
@LIEngProf No. This map will be good for 2026, 2028, and 2030, regardless of Dem votes.
However, a referendum on the map seems quite likely, which will block it for 2026, and if rejected by voters, for 2028 & 2030 as well.
The 2022 TN Congressional Election, a contest between Republican Maury County Mayor Andy Ogles and Democratic State Senator Beth Hardwell resulted in the far-right Ogles picking up a seat that was gerrymandered to be a solid GOP seat after having been stridently Dem for decades
While the 2010s MD map was a mangled mess, the current one is much cleaner - all while producing the same 7-1D delegation.
This occurred after Dems attempted an 8-0 map, then various 7-1 maps, eventually struck down by the MD SC, made up primarily of Larry Hogan appointees.

Allegheny County largely avoided the ugly rightward shift that many other large counties in the state and country fell victim to. 🧵
Comparing AZ’s Two Commission House Maps
In 2012, the AZ delegation was 5-4 Dem with Mitt Romney winning the state 53-44. In 2022, the delegation was 6-3 GOP after Joe Biden won the state 49.36-49.06.
Basically, the results are the opposite of what you’d expect.
