Democrats face a reckoning in Deep South legislatures

Democrats face a reckoning in Deep South legislatures:

Exit polls show that the number of white Democrats in the South is dwindling, and fast. Across the South, it is hard to find a statewide officeholder who is a Democrat. Republicans hold all of the marquee positions in Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, South Carolina and Texas. In Mississippi and Tennessee, only the attorneys general are Democrats. And Republicans control more legislative chambers in the South than ever before.
