The result would be a Democratic victory, 290 to 248.
Seven states with Republican governors (Indiana, Missouri, North Dakota, New Hampshire, Utah, Vermont, and West Virginia) and four states with Democratic governors (Delaware, Montana, North Carolina, and Washington) will hold gubernatorial elections in 2020. Using the same tools, you can find that:
In actuality, Trump lost the election 306 to 232. He lost Arizona, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont despite their Republican governors. He won Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Montana, and North Carolina despite their Democratic governors.
