New projection now show that Democrats are likely to take control of the State Board of Governors by tie breaker, and Alaskan Independent Bill Walker likely to caucus the Democrats along with his running mate. Just like the way the Senate goes in case of a 50/50 with independents usually caucusing with the Democrats.
Kansas and Maine keeps flipping back and forth. But some polls show that Maine residents favor Elliot Cutler who was endorsed by Senator Angus King. Should Cutler win Maine, he would become the Second Independent Governor.
However, we will be watching two states and at least one of them will break the tie whether Fred Duval will win Arizona or Jason Carter win Georgia.
Projection
GOP: 25
Dem: 24
Ind: 1
Speaking of the Senate, former GOP South Dakotan Independent Larry Presler, one poll shows that 54% of South Dakotans deciding to vote for him. Should Democrat Mike Michaud drop out, Pressler would be the second independent to win South Dakota. Pressler will likely caucus with the Democrats since he endorsed President Barack Obama in 2008, but he might caucus with the GOP if they control 51 seats, but he would vote with the Democrats to filibuster any bills they put on the Senate Floor.
