We should just let the House of Representatives draw the districts themselves.  Take it away from the states!  Whichever party is the majority gets to draw all the districts, seems fair.

How about no

Dems really could have created an 8-0 Maryland map by splitting the eastern shore and putting part of Baltimore in MD-01

Could they really do a safe 8-0 Map (i.e. something that would stay 8-0 in a 2010-like year) and still meet racial VRA requirements? I'd like to see this drawn out.

Stephan Wolf from DKE did a pretty good 8-0 MD that is much cleaner than the current map and keeps the two current VRA seats. Also the Bay Bridge connects the two segments of MD-01, so there is a link.
