Republicans further cemented their control of state governments in this year’s elections. They will control the governor’s office and both chambers of the state legislature, a governing trifecta, in four more states — Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri and New Hampshire.

The net effect of the elections Tuesday will be that Republicans will have a trifecta in 24 states, while Democrats will have just six, as of Friday.

While Democrats picked up a trifecta in one state, they lost trifectas in two others.

The losses are a harsh rebuke to President Obama’s call in October for Democrats to make gains in state legislatures when it appeared that Donald J. Trump’s campaign was stumbling.

Notes: As of 10 p.m. on Thursday, there were four undecided seats in state Senates and 10 in state Houses, as well as North Carolina’s governor race. Control of New York’s Senate is undecided. The Senate in Washington State now has more Democrats, but one of them caucuses with the Republicans, allowing them to effectively keep control. Nebraska’s state legislatures are unicameral and nonpartisan; its governor is Republican.
