When was the last time a major party didn't pick up any seats |
|
from the other major party in the senate, house and governorships?
The Republicans didn't pick up squat in 2006, right?

|
and I am sure there are others.

5. In 2004, we took House seats in CO, IL, GA, and NY |
|
Senate seats in CO, and IL, and picked up governors in MT and NH.

And no, it *didn't* happen in 2004. I would look at the 1930's, maybe 34 or 36. But even then I think the Republicans took a seat or two.
I think we are in uncharted territory here.
Does any DUer have a definitive citation?

4. In 1994 there were no Dem pickups in the House or Senate |
|
I am not sure about Governors though... I'll get back on that.

10. Wrong. I know that Pryor picked up a senate seat in AK for the dems. |
|
And there were a few governors Dems picked up as well.
