The Democratic minority in this state in terms of voting is down to about 40%, so it has completely flipped from when the Democrats were the majority party. One party rule is not good. It leaves those with certain beliefs and outlooks essentially unrepresented in state government. Some of this seems to be the result of the extreme dislike of Barack Obama here, which apparently reulted in the banishing of most officeholders with a “D” after their names.
