Which state party is in bigger state of decimation?

[Türkisblau]

Yes. Djou almost won this year. But i am at loss to name Democrat, who got at least 40% in statewide race in Alabama this year. And the only win in federal race - in VRA-mandated heavily black district.

I actually think, in terms of just legislative seats/strength, the TN Democrats are worse off than the AL Democrats. Even in 2008, they had the Governorship, the State Senate, and were about even in the State House. Now, they've lost all that and are down to 6 (!) of the 33 Senate seats. Also, the the TN Dems are struggling to get their preferred statewide candidates elected in the primaries.

I know TN is naturally less favorable then AL, as its less black and the blacks in TN are much more concentrated, but still.

I'm still disappointed that Charlie Brown lost the gubernatorial race this year.

You mean - primary? He wouldn't win general in any case..

Nope, he was the democratic nominee for governor in 2014.
