| Governorships 2010: The Changing of the Guard |
| 2010-03-18 |
| Back in 1980, the Washington Post's David S. Broder wrote a notable book, The Changing of the Guard, about the generational turnover of national and state leadership occurring at that time. It's happening all over again. We'll see dozens of congressional seats switching hands and sides in November, but the greatest transformation will be in the statehouses. Even though just 37 of the 50 states have a gubernatorial election this November, the midterms are likely to produce so many new governors that a majority of all governors in 2011 will be newly installed. |
