In a word yes.
B1's problem was that his district changed and he didn't. In the '80s, his district was full of aerospace workers. Soon after the fall of the Berlin Wall, aerospace went into free fall. Many of the aerospace people cashed out and left. They were often replaced by Vietnamese, Hispanics, Koreans, Chinese and even Arabs. He was blind and did not pay attention.
Having non-citizens vote did not help either, but not paying attention to his district was what killed him. I think his district likes Loretta now.
