Delaware

Outlook: Solid Democratic

Delaware, like most other Mid-Atlantic states, has a Democratic lean. Both U.S. Senators are Democrats, as are the governor and the state senate. The state's at-large member of the House is a Republican and the state house is controlled by the GOP but in presidential elections as of late, the state has not been that competitive. Al Gore won the First State by thirteen percent in 2000 and John Kerry won by about eight percent in 2004. Considering how Barack Obama did well in Delaware's Democratic primary, it would seem a good bet that Delaware will remain blue in 2008.
