Meh, Diane Black would have probably done worse than Blackburn in a gubernatorial race against Dean. It’s not impossible for them to win statewide, but it’s arguably the hardest state for a Democrat to win nowadays.

The irredeemable pit known as Arkansas says hello.

True, good point. AR is even more solid than TN.

WY is by far the most Republican state in the union

In presidential elections, yeah. But it’s much easier to envision a Democratic path to winning the governorship of Wyoming than Arkansas, for me at least.

Of the current super Republican states (Utah, Wyoming, Oklahoma, West Virginia, Idaho), I think the order goes (most likely to elect a Dem statewide)
1. West Virginia
2. Wyoming
3. Oklahoma
4. Utah
5. Idaho
Democrats came within 3% of winning a statewide election in Idaho (Superintendent of Education) in 2018.

Democrats always do relatively well in Idaho's SOE races (and only SOE races) because their school system is absolutely awful.
