From what I hear, unlikely to be majorities in both or even either. AllyCat Jan 2024 #4

So we have 33 total senate seats and 99 total assembly seats sybylla Jan 2024 #5

I did not know about the assembly maps. AllyCat Jan 2024 #8

I stand corrected on where the supermajority is. sybylla Jan 2024 #9

I agree. I thought they ALL had to run for their seats again. AllyCat Jan 2024 #10
