Republicans keep control

No votes counted yet in 3 of the 99 seats on the ballot

The count for these has not reached us yet; the rest of the chamber is drawn from what has. 32 districts have one candidate on the ballot and are shown in that candidate’s party. 1 seat up this year is not in the count we read at all. Nothing is filled in until votes arrive.

Held by: the sitting member before the election, matched to the district; a seat with no matched member is left unmatched rather than given a party. District lines: the Census Bureau’s 2024 state legislative districts; a seat not on this year’s ballot is drawn in the page’s gray, outlined in its sitting member’s party.
