俄亥俄州共和党保住众议院多数却失超级多数 民主党至少夺42席并赢下州长

俄亥俄州11月3日大选结果进一步确认:共和党保住了州众议院多数席位,但民主党至少赢得42席,共和党自2013年以来首次失去众议院超级多数。选举前,共和党在99席的州众议院握有约三分之二多数。仍有个别选区结果未定,共和党席位降至否决权门槛60席以下。
州长选举方面,民主党人艾米·阿克顿(Amy Acton)击败共和党人,赢得州长职位。共和党此前同时掌控州长职位与州议会两院,阿克顿的胜选终结了共和党在俄亥俄州的三权独揽。
民主党立法竞选委员会(DLCC)此次重点争夺了一批竞争选区。DLCC表示,众议院超级多数被打破后,阿克顿的否决权将得到保障。俄亥俄州参议院方面,共和党仍保留超级多数。
计票仍在进行,最终认证结果可能与目前非官方统计有所出入。州长易主与众议院超级多数的丧失,意味着俄亥俄州在2027年立法会期的权力格局将出现明显变化。
Ohio Republicans Keep House Majority but Lose Supermajority as Democrats Win at Least 42 Seats and the Governorship
Results from Ohio's November 3 general election have been further confirmed: Republicans kept their majority in the state House of Representatives, but Democrats won at least 42 seats and Republicans lost their House supermajority for the first time since 2013. Before the election, Republicans held roughly a two-thirds majority in the 99-seat House. With a few races still undecided, Republicans have fallen below the 60-seat veto-proof threshold.
In the governor's race, Democrat Amy Acton defeated her Republican opponent to win the governorship. Republicans had held a trifecta — the governorship and both chambers of the legislature — and Acton's victory ends that trifecta in Ohio.
The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC) targeted a slate of competitive districts in the cycle. The DLCC said breaking the House supermajority protects Acton's veto power. In the Ohio Senate, Republicans retained their supermajority.
Counting continues, and certified results may differ from the current unofficial tallies. The change of governor and the loss of the House supermajority mean Ohio's balance of power will shift noticeably in the 2027 legislative session.
