What the hell is going on?
Cole should be up by double digits, West Virginia is going to be Trump's best state!

Governor races /=/ Federal races

Why do people not understand this? It's the same reason why Scott can win in Vermont.

Yeah, this race is a Tossup, with Justice favored at this point.

Of course this is different, but you cannot deny that Federal races do have a big impact on Governor races, even if it isn't as big as on congressional races. Look at how many governors republicans lost in 2006 and how many governors democrats lost in 2010.

If I were to try and rationalize this, the people are clearly unhappy with the current picture in the given circumstances and just want to throw out the incumbents, no matter what party they belong to. They are unhappy with the direction of state (and nation, but they can fix the state executive now), and thus are willing to consider a relatively similar member of the other party.
