Rhode Island has us Beat!

I was surprised to learn from The Thicket that Hawaii does not have the most Democratic legislature in the country. According to NCSL, there are seven state legislatures with a more than 2/3rds Democratic majority. They are:

Rhode Island - 90.3%
Hawaii - 89.5%
Massachusetts - 89%
West Virginia - 79.9%
Connecticut - 73.8%
Maryland - 72.9%
Arkansas - 72.6%

There are three state legislatures with a more than 2/3rds Republican majority. They are:

Idaho - 76.2%
Utah - 71.7%
Wyoming - 71.1%
