Texas is picking up four seats. Now way all 4 will be Republican. With some creativity, the new districts will be favorable to all.

Texas is one of nine states that still come under the control of the Feds for approval of Congressional Districts via the Voting Rights Act of 1965. That is one reason you see such screwed up district lines imo.

I’m pretty sure the GOP will redistrict Ohio, too.
