Please repost your best de-rigged WI leg maps.
Well, mine is probably far from the "best" in any parameter, but it underscores that bad geography is still an issue for WI Democrats.
Thanks. Username checks out.
Was hoping to see truly de-rigged Senate maps that reflected the partisan lean of state.
The username is a misnomer atp since anyone who knows me can tell you I'm really pretty much a Democrat (as my avatar now indicates) more than anything else.
I can make a balanced map if need be, but I don't think that's the definition of "de-rigged." "De-rigged" really means drawing the districts with as little consideration of political data as possible. Maybe the outcome isn't proportional, but that's really the result of how the geography works out.
Say the word and I can draw up a 17-16, but don't be surprised if it looks quite horrendous.
The fact is inescapable that the political distribution of voters in WI is exceptionally good for the GOP; this is exactly the sort of map you get if you draw the districts as nonpartisan-lly as possible.
