2022 #Midterms Simulation: #ArtoftheGerrymander

A Republican House win will be built on gerrymanders (TX/GA/FL/TN/LA, etc.)

To illustrate the need for fair maps, I'm calculating the results using the 2022 votes, but if every state had a Democratic gerrymander. #ElectionTwitter ImageImageImageImage
Methodology:

I’ll apply the difference in Presidential margin to the House result. Thanks @davesredist @mikemathieu @vest_team + @DKElections @PoliticsWolf

Keen to see how my maps perform over the decade; tried to comply with state law if partisan intent were allowed to stand.
#ArtoftheGerrymander: #Alabama
Trump 62.0% - Biden 36.6%
Real delegation: 6R-1D
Gerrymandered: 5R-2D
Ξ” Share of D seats: 14% => 28%
Easy Democratic pick-up of a safe new African American seat.

This is a spreadsheet of Cook Report races which I made based on currently reported results (9am Wed).

+1= Dem Victory
-1=GOP Victory
+0.5= Dem winning
-0.5 = GOP winning

Based on this, right now, I think the Dems hold onto the US House.

#Election2022 Image
Note especially: 3 (of 10 total) GOP "Toss up" seats have already been called for Democratic Victory.
#NC13 #OH01 #TX34.

On the Dem "Toss up" side, there's #VA02 which flipped Red. But that's it.
In summary, of currently held Dem seats, only 1 flipped Dem-> GOP (#VA02), with 6 races leaning GOP.

On the other hand, of current GOP seats, 4 have flipped GOP->Dem (#MT01, #NC13, #OH01, #TX34) and 7 lean Democrats.

I think the Democrats will win the US House. Image

Meijer takes a 50.5-49.5 lead with 55% of estimated vote in thanks to more votes out of his Kent County base. Again, not getting a winner for a while. #MI03
We're minutes from a LOT of results out of Arizona and Washington, though more votes will be tallied in both states over the coming days.

Last night, Arizona's independent redistricting commission advanced this finalist congressional map, which will now go to public comment: projects.fivethirtyeight.com/redistricting-…
This map creates 5 πŸ”΄ seats, 2 πŸ”΅ seats, and 2 🟣 seats. The median seat, David Schweikert's #AZ01, is pretty close to the statewide partisan lean, so Dems should be able to win 5/9 if they win statewide. But in a good GOP year, they could win 7/9. projects.fivethirtyeight.com/redistricting-…
The map is not kind to Dem incumbents, though. Tom O'Halleran is pretty well screwed, as his #AZ02 becomes R+15. Greg Stanton's #AZ04 would also become a tossup. projects.fivethirtyeight.com/redistricting-…

Woah. Kirkpatrick+10, Biden+11 seat in 2020. Going to be a different seat next year with redistricting of course, might even shed Cochise County and take in more Pima depending on how things go.
Of course on the other hand it might not change too much at all - these things are still in flux. I think regardless Dems are moderately favored here but the map is consequential.
Kirkpatrick was elected in 2008 by flipping the very large #AZ01. She lost reelection to Gosar in 2010, but then won the redrawn #AZ01 in 2012 and 2014. She ran for Senate against McCain in 2016 and lost, and then moved to #AZ02, flipping the seat in 2018 and holding it in 2020.

New at @CookPolitical: House rating changes in 20 districts, all towards Democrats. I can’t recall the last time we moved so many races at once, let alone in the same direction.
More @CookPolitical: for the first time this cycle, Democrats have at least as good a chance of picking up House seats as Republicans on a net basis. cookpolitical.com/analysis/house…

I am, once more, a guest of the Pima County Republican Club. Here to listen to @kelliwardaz speak today, coming back to #Tucson after cancelling an appearance a few weeks ago.
Today’s conversation - whether @kelliwardaz addresses it in her speech or during the question and answer session - is likely going to focus on Ward’s support to refer a sales tax increase to the ballot, letting the voters decide.
There is something new today here at the Pima County Republican Club’s official meeting space at the Sabbar Shrine Temple - they opened up an adjacent room to accommodate more people. It’s early, but there are easily 40 people here already to see @kelliwardaz.

🚨MY MASTER THREAD of #Midterm2018 results analysis, including an array of data dives. Will the country chose to repudiate president Trump? Health care instead of the wall? RT & strap in, folks, tonight could be a wild ride. We get the first batch of results at around 6 PM ET.
Turnout has looked unprecedented for weeks now. Indications today that it could even beat these lofty expectations. At this point I think I’d buy for pickups in Tossup sub/urban seats like #TX07 #TX32 and #TX26, but sell in more rural districts that have looked like reaches.

Pundits have traditionally written off Arizona as a reliable red state. Not anymore.

The #youthvote and Democratic candidates are fired up to bring change. #AZpol (1/6) NXTGN.US/fja
#AZGov: David Garcia has the chance to become Arizona’s first Latinx governor in decades. He fights for immigrants, students, teachers, and all Arizonans.

#AZSen: Kyrsten Sinema rose from an impoverished upbringing to Congress. She is a strong advocate for reproductive rights and could become the first openly bisexual senator in U.S. history.

Ridiculous and so disappointing.
It's much harder to put out Trump fires if people lighting fires from inside the Democratic tent.
