Democrats also took control of the state legislature, meaning Crowley will be able to implement his agenda without Republican interference.

Democrats won all statewide races, and added two seats in the House of Representatives from Wisconsin.
Incumbent Derek Van Orden lost to Rebecca Cook by about 18,000 in House District 3. Newcomer Michael Alfonso, a Republican, won District 7, over Democrat Fred Clark 56% to 44%. In Washington, Democrats will have new majorities in both the House and the U.S. Senate.
