I agree. Statewide is at 11+ Biden which looks out of reach.

If every state distributed electors to federal districts well that would be some improvement, but it would make the Presidential result much harder for us to guess.

The state is probably out of reach for Trump and its likely the state doesn't;t split its electoral college votes this time around. 2016 was the first time it did.

It would be terrible idea as Republicans would win more often then not due to gerrymandering.

So no one is going to comment any anti comments on the Map Link wherever it is? after I have gone to so much trouble to post it, by request and suggestions? I really would like to hear from N?

Found it on N s Post, I hope it works on my post:

Thats about the margin I would expect for that state. It wouldn't shock me if Biden hit 70 there.

It's odd though that it wasn't done back before the '70's when Democrats were the gerrymanderers. They often held Congress by large margins too.

I think we should take recent polls with a grain of salt given that they were taken before Bari weiss resigned from the New York Times.

I worry with out stupid two week rule before absentee ballots can be counted it could show Trump leading or tied or New York and Republicans try courts or to throw out every ballot they can.

That rule needs to be changed and allow them to be counted as soon as they are received like what Colorado and Oregon do.

The map has no polling data or anything else with it. The map clear as day says it's user made. The map is a work of fiction as much as a map of Middle Earth or Narnia.

I agree with you, I said the map is a crazy map. But as a proud Republican I love it shows Trump winning. Does it say who made it? I did not make or edit the map no matter what you or anyone says or thinks. I told you all how I found the map. Thank you for posting H.
