미국 애리조나주(州)에서 60년 만에 처음으로 민주당이 주지사 선거 승리는 물론 주 상·하원까지 모두 장악하는 일이 벌어졌다.

AP통신과 폭스뉴스 등은 6일(현지시간) 애리조나에서 1966년 이후 처음으로 민주당이 주지사와 주 상·하원을 싹쓸이하는 '트라이펙타'(Trifecta·3관왕)를 달성했다고 보도했다.

우선 민주당 소속 케이티 홉스 주지사가 재선에 성공했고, 주 상원 선거에서는 민주당이 17석을 가져가 과반을 넘겼다. 공화당은 10석을 지켰고 3석은 아직 결정되지 않았다. 민주당이 애리조나 상원의 다수당이 된 것은 1990년대 초 이후 처음이다.

주 하원에서도 민주당은 31석을 확보해 과반을 넘겼다. 공화당은 16석, 미확정으로 남아있는 자리는 13석이다. 공화당이 60년간 하원을 장악해왔던 것을 고려하면 이례적인 일이다.

이처럼 민주당이 3관왕을 달성한 곳은 애리조나를 포함해 미시간, 미네소타, 펜실베이니아, 네바다, 위스콘신 등 최소 6개 주에 달한다.

3관왕까지는 아니더라도 텍사스의 경우에는 2003년부터 공화당 우세였던 하원 통제권이 민주당으로 넘어갔고, 민주당 소속 지나 이노호사 주지사가 당선되면서 32년만에 처음으로 민주당 주지사가 탄생하는 이변을 낳았다.

또 메인과 노스캐롤라이나 하원, 뉴햄프셔 상·하원에서도 민주당이 공화당을 꺾고 주도권을 쥐는 모습이 확인됐다.

전미 주의회협의회(NCSL)에 따르면 이번 중간선거는 공화당이 전국 주정부를 장악한 2010년 이래로 가장 많은 변화가 감지된 선거로 기록될 전망이다.
