If anyone has a DRA map let me know. I have a feeling some of these seats aren't super safe.

Democrats are mad about a potential 24-4 (85.7%) map in Florida, a Trump +13 state, all while they are claiming the following states are not gerrymandered:
Virginia 10/1 (91%) for a Harris +5.8 state
California 48/4 (92.3%) for a Harris +20.14 state
- where the incumbent governor won by less than in Florida in 2022
New York 19/7 (73%), where they went for at least 20/6 (77%), in a Harris +12.6 state.
- this state was just 15/11 in 2022. New York's first-in-the-nation Mid-decade gerrymandering efforts flipped 4 seats from Republican to Democrat, an astonishing gain of 8 seats, even as Trump pulled New York closer than it's been since 1988. Since Michael Freaking Dukakis.
And again: New York drew first blood. Not us. They are just mad that we noticed what they were doing. (Illinois drew preliminary blood.)

On a proportionality basis, the Ronmander map in Florida is still significantly fairer than the Democrat gerrymander in Virginia.
Dems won 42% of the vote in Florida and will win between 14 and 21% of the congressional seats under DeSantis' new map.
Meanwhile, the GOP won 46% of the vote in Virginia and will win just 9% of the congressional seats under the Dem gerrymander.
DeSantis' new map is also vastly more fair than California's. Trump won 38% of the vote in CA, and yet Republicans are likely to win just 7% of the state's congressional seats.
If you look at the gap between the state's popular vote breakdown and the percentage of seats the minority party is expected to win under the map, Florida's new map is almost perfectly on par with Illinois or Maryland.

@NOVAaocfan20 @AustinHoney30 We need dems in NOVA to start moving to Gitmo.

@AustinHoney30 We need the dems there to start moving up to Georgia or North Carolina.

@suburbanwinebro @_the_joe_sizzle @PpollingNumbers This isn't really packing, we're not drawing nasty districts to get as many D's as possible. Not our fault the Ds are compactly in one spot
But sure, convince yourself that a 7-0R FL SC will shoot this down

@_the_joe_sizzle @PpollingNumbers Homophobia so early in the day? Libs never cease to shock

@suburbanwinebro @_the_joe_sizzle @PpollingNumbers Its a more compact map, and doesn't need to draw eldritch tentacles to make sure people can win seats :)
Next up is section 2 boyo

@Lenector1 @_the_joe_sizzle @PpollingNumbers it being Trump+13 doesn’t matter if you’re arguing for anything other than proportionality.

@MarcACaputo The consultant should be fired, these seats are all double digit Trump seats. If we're losing double digit trump seats, the house was long since lost.

No shock DeSantis is trying to carve a net of 4 additional GOP seats in Florida
But is this a guarantee?
Nope

RT @chriswithans: I see Ron DeSantis has gone with the moderate option, much like Texas. I do not fault him, for he is a man of integrity…

@ASFleischman Thriving? They've gotten into a population death spiral and will vanish in a generation at this rate.

North Korea killed a million South Korean civilians (20 times the civilian death toll in Gaza) and South Korea went on to become a thriving democracy.
North Korea probably should not have invaded.

30 minutes researching the Korean War will make everything North Korea does make sense to you. The US committed a genocidal campaign and wiped it from our history books

@Champie101 @PpollingNumbers The Amendment also says the maps must be compact, this removes Tendrils from south florida and Orlando and makes it more compact ;)
English

@PpollingNumbers It is illegal to gerrymander in Florida. The Fair Districts Amendments to the Florida Constitution, passed by voters in 2010, expressly forbid drawing electoral maps with the intent to favor or disfavor a political party or incumbent.
