Fair redistricting: New York

[Kevinstat]

CD1 (Rochester, Dover, Concord) - D+2.6
CD2 (Portsmouth, Manchester, Nashua) - R+2.7

Deviation is ±1257.

Basically a choppier version of HCP's map - three county chops (Rockingham, Merrimack, Hillsborough), but all towns are intact and IMO looks better with chops than following Rockingham and Merrimack Lines.

For those of the judges who are uncomfortable with the deviations of this plan, you can perhaps pretend you're voting for this



or this



I'm sorry, I couldn't resist posting these maps, which I made midday yesterday but hadn't gotten around to saving in the Atlas Gallery and then posting here.  You probably can't pretend you're voting on something other than what you're actually voting on.

Here's my first (maybe only) plan:



(The part of the state below the image is in CD-2 of course. )

I may try to find something better, but I'm pretty satisfied with this one, particularly with the low deviation.  No cities or towns are split.  I confirmed the population data with County Subdivision population totals from the U.S. Census Bureau's web site.  I used cut and paste to get the info for both districts to show up on the image.
