Ordinarily WW does not follow governors’ races. However, with reapportionment on the table in 2011-12, control of governors’ offices is particularly important.Here is a summary of the current status of the 37 gubernatorial races to be decided in November, as reported by the Cook Political Report. [Selection of toss-ups as leaning one way or the other is by WW.]
