Okay so a red state is redder and a blue state is bluer.
Let me know when Michigan, Wisconsin, New Hampshire, PA, GA and more join the wave.
the infuriating thing is that by vote count alone, texas is actually very purple
I think it was on the verge of going blue back in the early aughts and then they gerrymandered a majority for themselves ever since.
even right now it’s something like 46% blue
This is important because it helps preserve the house of representative political party ratio so the GOO doesn’t gerrymander themselves to a supermajority in the midterms.
On top of that, the new red districts in Texas who aren’t exactly happy about this change are not exactly a lock. California district changes very likely are. There’s a slim but possible upset against maga in this whole maneuver.
The blue state ain’t bluer yet. State senate has to ok it, the voters have to approve in November.
New Hampshire only has 2 seats and both are democrats, and have been since 2016.
Hey there youngin.
Must have not been an adult in the year 2000 or 2004.
NH is a very important swing state, despite its lack of electoral votes.
Google it or something.
I was not an adult then, but I have literally lived in NH. I was merely pointing out that NH can’t exactly get more blue (other than maybe getting some better dems than the current ones) because they have 2 dem senators and 2 dem house reps.
