With the 2024 election less than two weeks away, attention is not just on Congress and the presidency, but also the executives that run each of the 50 states—governors.
As of this year, there are 23 states with Democratic governors and 27 states with Republican governors. The Cook Political Report and Sabato’s Crystal Ball, both election handicappers, are tracking 11 governor races in the 2024 election, with six rated as “solid Republican,” one as “likely Republican,” one as “solid Democratic,” two as “likely Democratic,” and one as a “toss-up.”
