    Keep in mind that the state’s voter base being on the bubble is very different from the state’s government being on the bubble. Because of “winner take all” voting systems, there are a bunch of states with a thoroughly “purple” constituency but which nevertheless have a Republican stranglehold on all the levers of power.
