When pigs fly, the stars start falling, and the Lions win the Super Bowl.
In Maryland there is history within the last decade of Republicans winning the Governor's Mansion.
In Washington State, Republicans have not won a governor's race since 1980 -- the year of the Reagan Revolution. John Spellman was defeated for reelection by Democrat Booth Gardner in 1984. Since then, Washington State Democrats have had a stranglehold on the Governor's Mansion for 32 consecutive years. When Inslee wins reelection in 2016 it will stretch to 36 years!
You could say the same for South Dakota where Republicans have had a stranglehold for
40 consecutive years!I honestly think with the fact that the WAGOP is probably the strongest since 2000 that 2020 or 2024 may be the year that this breaks.
