Ballot Access News » Blog Archive » Article Summarizes Final Results of Legislative Elections Across the Nation

"Tim Storey has this comprehensive summary of the results of state legislative elections, including a map that shows which major party controls each state’s legislature. Unfortunately, the article does not mention that independents or minor party members were elected to state legislatures in ten states this year."

Of course, all state legislatures consist of representatives and senators. Most of the independent and minor party winning candidates are in states with electoral laws that are much more democratic than other states.
