Hughes won by a wide margin, giving Democrats control of the state legislature for the first time since 1913, and in Virginia Lt. Gov. Mills Godwin Jr. won the governorship with broad GOP and Conservative backing amid a four-candidate field.

At-Large School Board Wins but Strikes Snag
Pittsfield voters approved an at-large School Committee but a wording snag in the ballot requires additional state action before the 1967 shift from seven ward-based seats. Most precincts backed Questions 2 and 3 on council vacancies and central purchasing. Del Gallo supported the change while Haughey favored the ward system, and results showed the at-large measure passing 12,597 to 3,993 with other questions also carrying strong margins as the city eyes a central purchasing department and vacancy procedures.
