TX is nearly done.
zendari probably won’t like it.
TX-25 (Doggett) points from Austin north toward Dallas; indeed Travis County gets split up 4 ways.
TX-33 is exurban Ft. Worth: Parker, parts of Tarrant and Wise
TX-34 stretches from Dewitt to Mexico; Farenthold’s district points north now.
TX-35 stretches from Austin to San Antonio; not sure but Canseco may actually live in this district now, leaving TX-23 (El Paso to San Antonio) for the Democrats.
TX-36 is in the southeast, from Harris out to Newton.
Apparently TX-35 actually favors the Democrats. Obama won 62-37. So maybe Doggett will run here. McCain won the new 25th 56-43, and the new 23rd 52-47.
This isn’t entirely correct.
TX-25 is a new Republican district.
TX-23 is Canseco’s district that he should hold easily.
TX-34 is a new Democratic district.
TX-33 and TX-36 are new Republican districts.
TX-35 is Doggett’s new district. Ideally though he gets racially primaried and we are rid of him for good.
Overall, we go from 23-9 to 26-10. It’s fine.
What is the net effect?
