I think with Minnesota, they should draw Peterson from Detroit Lakes down the I-94 corridor to the MN exurbs. Yes, it will make it more Republican, but hey, Peterson is a closet Republican.
That way, we can create an Iron Range-Reservations-Moorhead Northern seat where Chip Cravaack would likely lose.
Cravaack lives in the MN exurbs part of the district, so he'd be running against Peterson under that sort of map. Also, Republicans hold both chambers in the MN Legislature, so i don't think they're going to draw a D Gerrymander
Well, I would draw Chisago into the 8th, thus making it the only exurban county, pretty much everything north of there is Iron Range.
