Some things,

In Louisiana the only acceptable cross of the lake should be from Saint Tammany to Jefferson as theres a clear bridge there. I don't think theres any road connections


Also Indianapolis should be split South(White working class), Central(Minority) And North( UMC whites)

Overall still a good series.




Either of these maps can work. Both have 2 Safe Ds, In Both maps the Purple district is Safe R but in the 2nd map the blue district is +12 R composite but swung like 17 points left so should be a tossup.

I assume his reasoning is that since current LA-01 does it, it's fine.
My bad it's fine. There is a road connection but north jefferson is still better related with st tammany.

You double crossed the Cascades which is a big no no in Washington.

Where's Justin Amash?

Did he never get elected in this universe?

Justin Amash was a serious challenger in the 27th District in the 2014 and 2016 elections, but failed to get elected.


Thanks!

I believe that with so many districts, it would be necessary to cross the Cascades?

Well you crossed it twice, once in the south and once in the north . You should only cross it once for population equality. So basically start fully in the West and finish it or vice versa.
