CA is flipping red next year.
NY may flip red too (depends on the State Senate).

As the Democrats have +85% majorities in both houses of the MA legislature, as well as every congressman, senator, and constitutional officer we're pretty much a one-party state here.

Good point, perhaps a 2/3rds majority in both houses should cancel that out, making MA, HI, and MD be 1 party Democrat, and WY be 1 party Republican.

Is the NY Times article wrong? I thought the split for the NY Senate was 35-27 Republican. If the Democrats gain 4 seats and the Lt. Governorship, they get to break ties.
