Democrats, though, have trifectas in only six states -- California, Oregon, Hawaii, Delaware, Connecticut and Rhode Island.

Voters could also break Republican trifectas in Arizona, Georgia, Iowa, Kansas, New Hampshire, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin.

|
|
Before the 22010 elections, Republican "trifectas"—control over the governorship and both chambers of the state legislature—were present in just nine states.
|
|
Holder's plan focuses on "trifectas" — states where Republicans control both the governor's mansion and both legislative chambers, giving them total control over the redistricting process.
|
|
The state is one of 26 Republican trifectas (the governor is Republican, and Republicans have the majority in both the state Assembly and the state Senate).

Nascar has also been looking to other sports, like horse racing, for bet types, such as trifectas, or bets on the order of the first three winners of the race.

Mr. Holder said in an interview that the group was chiefly determined to deny Republicans so-called trifectas in state governments — places where a single party controls the governorship and an entire legislature, as Republicans do in Ohio and Florida, among other critical battlegrounds.
|
|
Why it matters: 2018 is not just about the national races — the group is pushing Democrats to focus their efforts at the state level, arguing that if Dems can break any of the states' GOP trifectas then they'll be able to avoid efforts to criminalize abortion.
|
|
And on the state level, there was more good news for Democrats: They now have six more state "trifectas" (where they control the state House, Senate, and governorship), flipped seven legislative chambers, and gained 333 state legislature seats out of the 1,000 they lost during the Obama years.

With governors' mansions in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Kansas now in Democratic hands and newly empowered Democratic trifectas in New Mexico and New York (adding to the ones already established in Washington and New Jersey as a result of the 2017 midterms), the stage is set for progressive legislation on guns, the minimum wage, clean energy, and other topics.
|
|
Democrats gained a trifecta (control of the governor's office and both legislative chambers) in Colorado, Illinois, Connecticut, Maine, New Mexico, New York and Nevada as well as in Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Those in favor argue that government trifectas are efficient and avoid gridlocks. Opponents argue that trifectas discourage policing of those in power by the opposition and that they do not limit spending and the expansion of undesirable laws. Opponents also argue that government trifectas do not tend to lead to compromise since one party can simply implement its goals unopposed. Consequently, the incumbent party may alter the structure of executive agencies to prepare for when it is bound to lose its incumbency.
|
|
Following the 2019 elections, Democrats have 15 trifectas (control of the governor's office and both legislative chambers), Republicans have 20 trifectas, and 14 states have a divided government.

But he also noticed that divided governments subvert performance and politicize the decisions of executive agencies. Early in the 20th century, divided government was rare in the United States, but since the 1970s it has become increasingly common. Divided governments are contrasted by government trifectas—a different situation in which the same party controls both the executive and legislative branches.
|
|
As of 2020, the GOP controls the presidency, a majority in the U.S. Senate, a majority of state governorships, a majority (29) of state legislatures, and 21 state government trifectas (governorship and both legislative chambers). Five of the eight sitting U.S. Supreme Court justices were nominated by Republican presidents, with a sixth (Amy Coney Barrett) awaiting Senate confirmation to fill the vacant ninth spot.
|
|
These alterations are performed to secure control over the agencies for when the party is no longer incumbent. Examples of these include political appointments that extend beyond the political cycle, contract or grant awards, and debt issuances. The situation is common in developing nations but rare in developed ones. Early in the 20th century, for example, government trifectas were common in the United States, but they have become increasingly rare since the 1970s.

Senate, Presidency, and House since 1855: any column where all three sections show the same color is a trifecta. The term is primarily used in the United States, where the federal government level consists of the president and the Congress with its two chambers (the House and the Senate). Because of the coattail effect, most newly elected presidents have a majority with them in both chambers of Congress. The six-year itch conversely means that the last two years of a two-term president rarely have trifectas.

A government trifecta is a political situation in which the same political party controls both the executive branch and the legislative branch in countries that have a legislative branch with two houses and have strict separation of powers. The term is primarily used in the United States. Most countries and all democracies have some degree of separation of powers into separate and independent branches of government consisting of an executive, a legislative, and a judicial branch, but the term government trifecta is only applied to countries in which the executive is not elected by the legislature. (In parliamentary systems, the executive [or part of it] is elected by the legislature and must have the support of the majority of the Members of Parliament but is otherwise separate and independent.) Government trifectas are seen as beneficial by some and as undesirable by others.
