Of the statewide offices that aren’t governor, I think the two that Democrats most need to think about launching a coordinated campaign over are the Secretary of State and the state Attorney General.
The Secretary of State governs elections. I think this one is fairly obvious.

State Attorneys General help enforce laws when the federal or local governments refuse to do so. Good AGs can help prosecute wage theft. GOP AGs have filed reams of lawsuits against your healthcare.
Dem AGs can prosecute police overreach when local DAs, who are more tied to the police, refuse to do so.
There’s a lot more to it than this, but your state’s laws are only as good as their enforcement, and the priorities of your attorney general will determine a lot about your state.

So TL;DR: Elect Democratic Secretaries of State and Attorneys General.
