Election 2019: Another Win for Democrats in Virginia Pushes State Further off the Competitive Map

Key Points
• Virginia moves from Leans Democratic to Likely Democratic in our Electoral College ratings in the wake of a fourth straight November that has broken in the Democrats’ favor.
• Gov. Matt Bevin’s (R) apparent loss in Kentucky is more of a personal repudiation of him than a broader loss for Republicans.
• Mississippi remains elusive for Democrats, and other results nationally represented a mixed bag for the parties. CONT.
