Daily Kos Elections gubernatorial race ratings: Initial ratings for 2013-14

Daily Kos Elections gubernatorial race ratings: Initial ratings for 2013-14

by David Nir

Daily Kos Elections is pleased to announce our first set of gubernatorial race ratings for the 2013-14 election cycle. Democrats are defending 14 seats, while 24 Republican seats are up for re-election, including two next month. Given this disparity, more Republican governorships are vulnerable overall than Democratic ones.

Our full chart rating the competitiveness of each contest is below (with Democratic seats shaded in blue and Republican seats in red), along with a description of our ratings categories and an explanation for why we've rated each race the way we have.

Also, Brownback has an approval of 33%. Democrats need to put an effort to unseat him.
