If anything, my district (7th) got more liberal but Tim Walberg still won it.

Cynthia McKinney’s ‘district’ once included a single line that ran down a highway (nothing on either side) connecting pockets of black people. GOP Gerrymandering my ass.

They sure did in Illinois, home of one-party rule.

They are talking here about the Michigan state House of Representatives, not the federal Congress.

The Muskegon County district (currently district 91) used to always elect a democrat. So, Holly Hughes winning for the GOP by 58 votes is an upset win. (I grew up next door in Newaygo County, which at one time the ‘Rats included with Mecosta and Clare counties in central Michigan (this was always a GOP district).
