If I had a free hand at LA. 10 seats could be split 5-5:



1) 52/46 MCCAIN, 54/46 DEM. Should elect a Democrat; Landrieu likely carried it in 2014.
2) 71/27 OBAMA, 75/25 DEM. Just over 50% BVAP.
3) 76/22 MCCAIN, 70/30 REP
4) 77/21 MCCAIN, 70/30 REP
5) 58/41 OBAMA, 61/39 DEM, Plurality BVAP, 47.6% to 45.8% white.
6) 50/48 OBAMA, 55/45 DEM, Good for a Blue Dog, or a black Dem like Sanford Bishop. 51% white, 45% black VAP. Could shore this up a few points by going into Alexandria.
7) 68/30 MCCAIN, 64/36 REP
8 ) 66/32 MCCAIN, 61/38 REP
9) 73/26 MCCAIN, 69/31 REP
10) 54.6/44.5 MCCAIN, 50.6/49.4 REP, Republicans are favored, but not completely safe.

Thanks for the other LA map - here are some fixes to my map with that in mind:




I got rid of the Shreveport Blue Dog seat, and now CD6 is 56/43 Obama and over 51% BVAP.

My original CD5 is only plurality-BVAP, but I don't think it would have any problem elected a black rep. For instance, its much less white than EBR Parish as a whole, which has had black Mayor-Presidents since 2005.
