"State legislatures controlled by Republicans increased spending an average of 6.54% per year from 1997-2002, compared with 6.17% for legislatures controlled by Democrats. State spending rose slowest — 6% annually — when legislatures were split, with each party controlling one chamber."

I'll be sure to remind the republicans here of this link when they start blaming the Democrates for all the big spending that occurs in State government these days.
