- Democrats are poised to achieve trifectas—governor's office plus both legislative chambers—in at least three states in this year's midterm elections, with the piece suggesting the count could exceed three.
- States play an outsized role in climate and energy policy, according to the source, making partisan control of state government consequential for energy and environmental legislation.
Why it matters: If Democrats secure trifectas in three or more states, those state governments gain unified control over climate and energy legislation and regulation at a moment when state-level action carries outsized weight in the sector.
