Maine redistricting, 2020s

I tried my hand at a fair 2-district map of Maine.

I tried my hand at a fair 2-district map of Maine.

Golden lives in Lewiston, so this map would draw him and Pingree into the same district and leave the Second completely open. I doubt that the legislature would let this happen, assuming that a non-incumbent Dem would be unlikely to build the reputation and crossover appeal to hold onto the seat in what's likely to be a Republican-favored year in the House.

I guess you are correct

On the other hand, I utterly do not care about incumbents when drawing my maps.
While this may be unpalatable to many, this won't be changing (unless I'm drawing a realistic map or something, which I don't do often).

Also, can't Jared Golden just move? Politicians have that luxury. He probably has three houses or something.
