I would have to think Bishop's CD is probably going to have to be black majority.  Which leaves the only question in GA left - how badly does the GOP try to take out Barrow?

I understood the VRA issue, although one can try to argue against it by saying that 47-8% is close enough and any more requires really jagged lines.  My point was more that, even if they're compelled to make it majority black, I doubt that they'll go much higher than 50%+1.  

With blacks, that's all that would be required.
