Democratic Rep. Debbie Dingell in tears after learning she will have to MOVE because redistricting s

Democratic Rep. Debbie Dingell in tears after learning she will have to MOVE because redistricting swiped her seat for the 2022 midterms: 23 of her colleagues have already dropped out and GOP momentum is surging

    Dingell's predecessor in her current seat is her late husband, longtime Rep. John Dingell, who represented various districts covering Dearborn for 60 years
    John Dingell had taken over his first House seat from his father, Rep. John Dingell Senior, who also represented parts of Michigan including Dearborn
    Debbie Dingell signaled she would be moving to Ann Arbor for next year's race
    She announced her intention to run for Michigan's 6th District, adding that the diversity of the 12th District's new map means it needs more 'representation'
    Michigan's re-districting was done by an independent commission for first time
    In the new map, six seats lean GOP, four lean Democrat, and three are contested

Democrat Rep. Debbie Dingell grew emotional on Wednesday night over having to leave her hometown of Dearborn, Michigan in order to keep serving in Congress after redistricting swiped her seat ahead of the 2022 midterm elections.

For the first time in history, Michigan's new map was drawn by an independent commission rather than political operators. That saw the state's number of House seats drop from 14 to 13, and is forcing Dingell out of the 12th Congressional District she took over from her husband, late longtime Rep. John Dingell.

Members of her party are watching nervously as next year's races begin to take shape with 23 less Democrat incumbents -- all of whom are either retiring or seeking a different office.

Boo Hoo. Another 'family legacy' bites the dust.

It's a job, not a title of nobility.

Don't move, Ms. Dingbat - just decide not to run for Congress in 2022 (or ever again). Easy peasy.

Or run in the district where she actually lives—but that would mean risking losing, which no Dingell has done in 88 years.

She does not need to live in the District she represents.  My current Congressman got Gerrymandered from the body of the AZ's 9th Congressional District, and he'll be running anyway.  Paul Gosar.

I have a Buck to bet that she will run in the District the Family has always held.  This talk about moving is just posturing for some perceived gain.

This is what happens with Democrat policies.  They cause people to leave the State, and you end up losing seats.  Perhaps Dingell should have thought about that earlier.

My Congress Lady doesn't even live in the State, much less in the District.

Add up the days they spend where, and I don't think any of them actually live in their district, except maybe the one from D.C.
