MAVOCKE--The recent elections saw the NAT seize a strong majority in the Senate, and a sizable majority of governorships.
But Nationalists won their largest majority at the state level, winning 16 of 17 attorneys general positions that were up for election this year.
That means 21 of the 23 state attorneys general are Nationalists.
The only Conservatives are Ansleigha Attorney General Richard Tierlot (pronounced "Tier-low") and Biereland Attorney General Ben Jordan.
Conservatives acknowledged they have a lot of work to do to win more attorneys general seats in the coming elections.
"We are overwhelmingly outnumbered at the state attorney general level," Tierlot told the NPF. "We've got a long road ahead in reclaiming attorney general seats, but we are committed to winning back some of those seats in the 2014 elections, and we are committed to working in harmony with our Nationalist colleagues."
Nationalists credit their strong candidates this cycle.
"We had good candidates that have broad appeal, and I think the Conservative brand is so badly damaged that it hurt their candidates' chances," Lial Attorney General Susan Pitman told the Mavocke Capitol.
But Conservatives are looking ahead to 2014, when 12 of the 23 seats will be up for re-election. Their top targets include Monomi Attorney General Ed Casey (N), whom Conservatives despise for declining to indict embattled Gov. Scott King Jr (N) in his corruption scandal.
Conservatives also have their eyes on Wellington Attorney General Mike Kozinski (N), who has modest approval ratings.
Nationalist are optimistic about their chances in 2014, however.
"It's going to be very difficult for Conservatives to win back seats in 2014. The NAT has strong candidates and strong incumbents, and we've been winning the public opinion wars in recent elections. Grassadellians want attorneys general who will fight for their rights and stand up for the common citizen, and they're only going to find that in the NAT," Pitman told GNN News.
It's unclear who will be the chair of the state Attorneys General Board. However, with the Nationalists holding an astonishing majority of seats, it's clear the chair will be from the NAT party.
