1994 made barely a dent, wow.
Is that because most of the gains that year were in Southern districts, due to a political compact between white Republicans and black Democrats? I remember hearing or reading that somewhere. Minority voters were packed into gerrymandered districts like NC-12 while the surrounding districts were "bleached" or some word like that, meaning made whiter, and therefore more likely to elect Republicans.
