There was a Dem-supported redistricting law approved by voters in FL that prevented the Republican majority from having a free hand in drawing the lines (forced to draw within certain parameters). The state GOP was just as unhappy as we are, because it gave the Dem seats. There are no such similar "protections" for Republicans in Dem-leaning states.

Thanks for the clarification. Never made sense to me that a R dominated legislature would do that. Amazing how it always works in one direction only.
