CORRECTED: ‘26 House Predictions Thanks to those of you who pointed out some of the color code errors I made on the map yesterday. Several of the OH & VA districts were the opposite of what they should’ve been, and I had AZ-02 (not 01) as a Dem pickup.

At long last, the January House predictions!! Based on an environment of D+4 (the rough GCB), I predict that Dems will net 10 seats to bring the House to 225-210 D. Unsurprisingly, the gains for both parties come from swing seats and newly drawn CDs 🤏🏻🧵Considerations & 🔑👇🏻

@SeanTrende Ironically, that district was held by a Dem from the ‘60s up to when JHB held it, with the exception of an R holding for two terms after the Republican Revolution.

The Worst ‘10s Gerrymanders, Part III: GOP OH (tie for 1st) After winning 5 seats in the ‘10 wave and taking full control of state gov, OH Rs looked to consolidate their gains. After splitting the losses from reapportionment, Rs drew Dems 4 vote sinks: - A new seat in Columbus (3) - A VRA Cleveland/Akron seat (11) - An Akron to Youngstown seat (13) - And Marcy Kaptur’s notorious Snake on the Lake district (9) from Cleveland to Toledo Rs had significant advantages in all the other seats, even if some looked marginal for the time, in an Obama x2 state. The map would prove remarkably durable, with not a single seat changing hands for its entire existence. @Mapping_Buckeye @OHPredictions

The Worst ‘10s Gerrymanders, Part II: GOP PA (tie for 1st) With full control of the state gov, PA Rs had two main goals: Keep the 5 seats they gained in the ‘10 wave and make sure it was Dems who lost a seat through reapportionment. They achieved this through the following: - They double-bunked Dem Reps Mark Critz & Jason Altmire, causing the latter to lose in the Dem primary (Critz then lost in the general). - They drew 5 Dem vote sinks: 3 in Philly (1/2/13); one in Pittsburgh (14); and one in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre/Poconos (17) - They drew several notoriously contorted districts: The Erie Split (3/5); the Western Tomahawk (12); and my personal favorite Goofy Kicking Donald Duck (7). - This led to a 13-5 R delegation in an Obama x2 state. The map was struck down as a partisan gerrymander by the PA SC for the ‘18 elections. @DJBranham @Free_CentralPA @PAMapper @pamapguy @DerekHinPGH

It really sucks that our lame duck period is so long here. Imagine how much damage Trump could do in 3 months if a Dem wins the presidency in 2028, not to mention how bad it could get if dems don't win the House/Senate this year.

@LIEngProf Didn’t Dems in Ohio beg the Ohio Supreme Court to do something but pretty much nothing happened even trying to get a 90 days referendum on the whole redistricting process or something?

@LIEngProf @Mapping_Buckeye @kkondik Good lord the 90s CDs were art projects. That’s not even the worst of them, the 90s southern districts were really impressively awful.

@LIEngProf It lasted to perfection until the last year it was in affect - 8 years ago this week in fact when a youthful Dem named Conor Lamb picked up Tim Murphy's seat

The Worst ‘10s Gerrymanders, Part I: GOP NC (tie for 1st) After decades of Dems drawing their preferred lines in NC, Rs finally gained control in ‘10 (and the Dem Gov had no power to stop them) and returned the favor with a punishing gerrymander. It was meant to eliminate 4 Dem seats for a 10-3 map in an Obama +.3/Romney +2 state. It had the following results: - Dems were placed into 3 massive vote sinks: 1st (rural black counties/Durham); 4th (Research Triangle/Raleigh/Fayetteville); & 12th (Charlotte/Winston-Salem/Greensboro) - Reps Brad Miller & Heath Shuler were forced into retirement, while Rep Larry Kissel lost - Rep Mike McIntyre (7) was able to narrowly survive - It contained such gems as the Angry Rat (2) and the Dancing Genie (4) The map wouldn’t survive the decade, to put it lightly.

@erickson_68 @kkondik @Mapping_Buckeye I imagine CA Dems are pushing hard for most/all of those lower polling candidates to drop out so they don’t play spoiler. The only time I can remember this happening in the past was in ‘12, when Pete Aguilar got locked out of his House seat, buying Gary Miller another term.

On a separate note, shouldn’t CA be rated Likely D until after the primary? Multiple polls suggest a Democratic shutout is possible. “Safe” should be reserved for races with virtually no risk to the favored party—and that’s not the case here. Dems certainly need a wake up call in this race.

@roon0292 @earlyvotedata It was a double-edged sword for Dems: They had to make it race-based because mid decade redistricting/gerrymandering are illegal in NY. Yet, it being race-based is what prompted SCOTUS to get involved. They would’ve punted if it was presented as partisan - which it was anyway.

@LIEngProf @Mapping_Buckeye @kkondik The snake was so absurd it literally attracted journalists to the sandbar that kept it contiguous to try to measure if it remained so at high tide. One of my favorite stories.
