American Maps

This page does not endorse any political candidates or ideologies. It only endorses facts and statistics and the conclusions I draw from them based on rational analysis. -The American Maps Guy

I used three major criteria for fair maps: 1) counties, cities and other communities of interest are kept intact 2) partisan breakdown of districts roughly coincides with that of each state. 3) enough competitive districts that House control would always be up for grabs

After months of working on this, it's finally here! A fair map of all 435 congressional districts. @RedistrictNet

Also Pat Dowell for IL1

The American maps guy is proud to announce his candidacy for New York’s 10th district. He doesn’t live in the district, but his mom grew up somewhere around there, which is more of a connection to the district than some of the other candidates have.

Congratulations to me for actually making a map instead of just puns.

This Redistricting cycle, the VA-1 and VA-7 swapped some of their constituents out, most notably in PWC and the Richmond suburbs. Here's how the portions of those districts voted in 2020 and 2021. Also, happy birthday @jmilescoleman!

@EnjoyerOfOC Pat Toomey

It might be true that Josh Shapiro is similar to Terry McAuliffe, but Doug Mastriano is far from a Youngkin-quality candidate.

The Nebraska delegation in 2023

@JonDArsen @McswagSwish @Uncrewed I’m all for representation, but 400 representatives seems like way too many. Do they even get enough people to fill every seat?

@AmericanMaps @McswagSwish @Uncrewed Yep, I'm the son of two former reps. You can't throw a rock in this state without hitting a state representative. It's a problem.

For those wondering, yes she did outrun the top of the ticket in 2020, flipping a Democratic district in the process. Certified New Hampshire moment

@celeste43_ @ppm1214 I don’t include him because that was a Trump district in 2016, but he was definitely bolstered by running against a bad candidate and being a stronger-than-average campaigner.

@AmericanMaps @ppm1214 And bacon.

@BobbyBlueCollar Billy long probably takes votes from grietens if he’s trump’s pick

@ppm1214 The good news for Republicans: in 2024, it’s likely the district remains intact, even if a redraw of some other parts of the map is ordered, so they’ll have another chance if they screw this up.

@ppm1214 There’s always two or three incumbents in wave elections who hang on despite the other party being favored, usually because the other party nominates a bad candidate. In 2018, those incumbents were Hurd, Katko, and Fitzpatrick. Kaptur could very well be one this cycle

The Ohio gubernatorial election

Alabama GOP senate primary be like

The Wisconsin senate election

The Pennsylvania senate election (minus fetterman)
