It’s very lopsided to Republicans for the time being.

IMO, it's lopsided for the Democrats, with their control over the Metro areas.

It would take a lot of time, which I now don't have, but it would be interesting to calculate the Electoral votes on that Congressional District basis and see what, if any, changes would occur.

It just bugs the Hell out of me to see the Metro areas always call the shots for the entire state. The people in the rural areas might not as well vote.

I’m sorry I wasn’t clear enough. My lopsided comment was about counties, not congressional districts and I think, nationwide, Trump got over 70% of the counties. Most Republicans do. Congressional districts would be a lot closer but it would be an interesting math project for somebody sometime. The problem is CG’s can split through county lines so you’d have to have precinct-by-precinct data to calculate who would win each CG.
