The following table shows all the U.S. states and to what party (Democratic or Republican) their state governors and US Senators belong. Also indicated is the majority party of the states' US House delegation and of the state legislatures' upper and lower houses. (Nebraska's legislature is unicameral, i.e., it has only one legislative house and is officially non-partisan, though party affiliation still has an unofficial influence on the legislative process.) Current as of November 2006 elections.
