Elections 2006- Democrats Win Majority of Governorships - AOL News:

(Nov. 8) -- For the first time in a dozen years, Democrats hold a majority of the nation's governorships after taking 20 of 36 races, including contests in battleground states such as Ohio, Pennsylvania and Colorado that will be crucial to the 2008 presidential race.

Democrats now possess 28 of the top state jobs, the same majority enjoyed by Republicans going into Tuesday's elections. The mood behind the reversal was no better expressed than in Ohio. No Republican president has ever taken office without winning that state.
