Florida State Senate Committee Releases 2022 Redistricting Maps: ‘Barely Gerrymanders’ or ‘Head Fake’?

Michael Patrick Leahy 12 Nov 2021

The legislative staff of the Florida State Senate Committee on Reapportionment released four draft maps of redistricting plans for congressional and state legislative districts on Wednesday that appear to maintain the status quo in the partisan breakdown of the state’s Congressional delegation.

Dave Wasserman, senior editor, U.S. House of Representatives, of the Cook Political Report tweeted on Wednesday the maps were “Bizarre.”

“[T]hese maps shore up #FL27 Rep. Maria Salazar (R), but otherwise are barely gerrymanders,” Wasserman noted.

“By my count these maps break down 16-12 Trump-Biden, vs. 15-12 today. Is this a head fake?” he added.

This needs to change.  Democrats are trying to shut out the Republicans in Illinois, Maryland, Nevada, New Mexico, and New York.

This needs to change.  Democrats are trying to shut out the Republicans in Illinois, Maryland, Nevada, New Mexico, and New York.

It's only going to change IF the RNC and the GOP makes some noise and I don't see that happening. 

Being the optimist that I am, ( ) I believe this is exactly one way in which the DEMS will win in '22.  They will use whatever means necessary to keep their power.
