There is a distinct, albeit long-shot, possibility that our very own GOP could come out of this election with 11 governorships in the 12 states—and if Missouri’s was up this year, we could have all of them.
Of course, we’ll need a break here and there, but it could happen.

In #6, that should read: “11 governorships in the 12 MidWestern states.”
