2024 Election Results
We are pleased and gratified by the goals we achieved despite a nation-wide conservative sweep. We are disappointed by our defeats, which only make us more determined to work harder for 2026. For more state-by-state details, please click to The States Project website.
Pennsylvania
One-seat majority held in the House
In a year where every statewide election in Pennsylvania — from the President to the Auditor General — went for the rightwing, holding a one-seat majority we helped to win by 63 votes in 2022 should have been impossible. But every House majority seat was held, including some from districts that went overwhelmingly for Trump, to preserve a majority that will be crucial for fighting the MAGA agenda over the next four years.
North Carolina
Rightwing supermajority broken
TSP accomplished our goal in North Carolina; breaking the rightwing supermajority in the legislature to protect Governor-elect Josh Stein’s veto power. With this governing power, he can block further rightwing attacks on personal freedoms, including abortion access, in a key Southern state.
Alaska
Bipartisan coalitions restored
Bipartisan coalitions in Alaska’s state legislature have created a crucial barrier against rightwing Governor Mike Dunleavy.
Assuming those coalitions stick together, this is the first time in decades that there will be a bipartisan coalition in both chambers at the same time.
Wisconsin
Significant progress made toward a trifecta
In the Senate, we exceeded our goals: winning all four of the targeted seats and breaking the rightwing supermajority. With the staggered terms in this chamber, there will be new opportunities to pick up seats, making it possible to win a new majority in two years. The new chamber makeup is 15-18, just two seats away from a new majority.
15 seats were needed to flip the Wisconsin Assembly and TSP powered successful flips in 10 seats. While short of our goal to flip the chamber, this puts us within striking distance of a new majority in 2026, and gives pro-democracy state lawmakers increased influence in a chamber that’s been under rightwing control since 2010. 5 seats away from a new majority.
Maine
Trifecta defended
Our investment in the Maine Senate helped hold the majority.
The House majority has been held!
Minnesota
Held Senate majority and tied the House
In 2016, when Hillary Clinton won the state by a similar margin as Vice President Harris in 2024, there was a 20-seat rightwing majority. This year, the chamber is tied. In a year when seven races were won or lost by less than 500 votes and another seven by less than 1,000, the majority lost three seats in the Minnesota House for a new chamber makeup: 67-67.
Our investment in a must-win special election in the Minnesota Senate helped hold the one-seat majority in that chamber.
Nebraska
Chamber makeup remains unchanged
No ground gained, but none lost either.
Nevada
Supermajority not realized
While our work helped to preserve the majorities in both chambers, there will not be a vetoproof supermajority in the legislature.
Arizona
Lost to rightwing in both chambers
No new power has been won in either chamber in the Arizona state legislature
Michigan
Lost the House
The new chamber makeup will be 52-58, a net loss of 4 seats that were narrowly won in 2022.
Whether won or lost, every race TSP powered came within 10 percent of the vote.
New Hampshire
Disappointing loss
We were not able to achieve our goals of increased governing power in either chamber.
Kansas
Disappointing loss
In a state where Donald Trump won by almost 15 percent of the vote, we were not able to achieve our goal of breaking the supermajority.
