GOP sweep in state legislatures biggest since 1920

McClatchy reports:

Republicans won big in state legislatures last week – the biggest since 1920, according to data compiled by the National Conference of State Legislatures

The group estimates Republicans will have a net gain of 300 to 500 seats, controlling more than 4,100 of the nation’s 7,383 legislative seats.

That’s the party’s best showing since 1920.

It was a sweeping victory.

“Republicans gained seats in every region of the country and in all but about a dozen legislative chambers that were up this year,” the NCSL reported.

Is the Democrat party becoming a regional party?
