Democrats Projected to Win Majority of Governors Races
民主党预计赢得大部份州长竞选
Unofficial results show Democratic candidates gaining ground in governors races across the United State.
Projections say Democrats may have won enough of the 36 governors seats contested Tuesday to gain a majority for the first time since 1994.
Early results gave the democrats Ohio, New York, Massachusetts, and 15 other states, including Maryland where an incumbent was defeated.
Among the Democrat's projected to win is Deval Patrick of Massachusetts, who would become only the second African American ever elected to a U.S. state's highest office.
In Florida, Republican candidate Charlie Crist is projected to win over the Democrat, Jim Davis. Outgoing Florida governor Jeb Bush is the brother of President George Bush.
