On that note, I think this might be the ideal downstate alignment with Sol's new district. The only county split is the Houston County one, and the seats here are all pretty sensical and cohesive. The northern boundary of the 12th could potentially get adjusted to accommodate other districts, though.
agreed. that’s almost exactly the same as my map, just a few diferences in counties between 1-8-12. also just a reminder that your map uses 2016 numbers, so 2, 8, and 12 are going to have to expand considerably with the 2020 census count
