Eid proposes an all-around better map, though I personally never like Ottawa-Grand Rapids.

What's the partisan breakdown of this map? I'm pretty sure that would be 8-5 Biden-Trump in 2020; would it be 8-5 Trump-Clinton in 2016?

I'm torn; on the one hand, I think it makes the most sense for Grand Rapids to have a Biden district and Macomb to have a Trump district, but on the other hand I think pairing Grand Rapids with Muskegon and especially Kalamazoo is pretty dumb. Overall I would be happy with either Birch or Chestnut.

RIP to Andy Levin. Maybe Meijer can hang on in 2022 but I think he probably loses in 2024, that district is headed left fast. I think Kildee might be able to hold on but idk about Slotkin, although she obviously got a major boost and could probably come back in 2024. It's not perfect but overall a reasonably coherent and fair map.
