This is not as bleak as the MSM makes it to be. Some DemocRATS will have to run in more marginal districts.
I dunno. I’m in CA and the local GOP is sounding like this is the end (for lack of a better term). All I know is, after the 2010 election here in CA, this is flat awful.
We REALLY need the 2004 Presidential numbers here.
As a general thing I like the drawing of districts without regard to where any of the incumbents live.
Sounds like Bilbray is our guy in the most trouble. Gallegly too.
Capps and Loretta Sanchez are rats with tougher districts.
Sounds pretty much like a push. I guess you can say that’s good for the rats since they already have a large advantage in seats.
Remarkably in 4 elections (after the initial 2002 election with current lines that hardly saw any change itself, 1 R seat changed to D and 1 new R seat) which saw the majority party changed twice, a grand total of 1 Cali seat out of 53 changed parties (11th R to D in 2006). Hell of a gerrymander.
