With state elections coming soon, the nation is on edge. The state elections, arguably moreso than any federal election, will shape the lives of the American people and how they live every aspect of their lives. The first set of polls for this election have been published, and they reveal a lot about the politics of our nation today.
While polls vary from state to state, one principle holds true throughout: The Democratic Party will, if the currently released polls hold true, gain ground or maintain ground in every single state assembly, will likely hold the Sierra Governorship, and will potentially claim the Governor spot in the state of Atlantic, defeating the only Republican governor nationwide.
Most notable this election cycle is the state of Sierra, a traditionally Democrat area, even before the merger of 50 states into 5. The GOP has an incredibly small margin in the state assembly of 31%, a stunningly low amount for a major party, and it is only 11% higher than the Green Party’s 20%. Democrats are, as expected leading the race with 49% of the Assembly. The gubernatorial race for the state is also panning out as expected, with Democrat darthholo leading 58 to 42 against Republican, as well as Presidential candidate RMSteve.
The second state with a gubernatorial position open this cycle is the state of Atlantic, the only state with a Republican Governor. The incumbent, Atlantic Governor and Republican Mr. Fire, is tied with Democratic challenger Samd1ggitydog, each holding 45% of the vote. The green party candidate for the position, Senator Nazbol909, holds 10% of the vote at the time of the latest polls. The most notable candidate in this race is likely Senator Nazbol, who moved to Atlantic in order to run for the governorship. How her candidacy will affect the race in the upcoming days is unknown. However, if polls hold, it is safe to say that the victorious candidate will remain from either the Democratic or Republican parties.
All in all, this election cycle, much like the recent federal elections, is shaping up to be a good one for the Democrats. The only hope for Republicans seems to be to hold onto the Governorship in Atlantic, with a small but still notable chance for the governorship of Sierra, and to gain enough ground to prevent a supermajority in any state Assembly. However, this is only the first set of polls, and a lot can change between now and Election Day.
