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

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.

Big shakeup in DCCC's House battlefield this AM. The committee named 12 challengers to its "Red to Blue" program, added 3 members to its "Frontline" program, added 8 new GOP/Dem districts to its "In Play" list, and removed 6 GOP-held districts from its target list.
Red to Blue challengers:

VP Mike Pence speaks this morning at campaign rally today in Janesville, WI, the hometown of fmr House Speaker Paul Ryan, and later at Montana GOP rally in Belgrade, Montana, where 1st term MT GOP Senator Daines is in a competitive re-election race.c-span.org/video/?475723-… @cspan
Janesville, WI is now represented in the House by 1st term #WI01 GOP Rep. Bryan Steil, who spoke about the recent violence in Kenosha and then introduced VP Pence at the campaign rally there:"President Trump, Vice President Pence and I oppose defunding police and back the badge."
Steil (R-WI): "Vice President Mike Pence may be a Hoosier, but his frequent visits to Wisconsin, have gotten me thinking he's got some Badger pride."

a feature i love about the NYT/Upshot polling project: the little link in each district write-up that takes you to a detailed map with the district outlined nytimes.com/interactive/20…
click on "this interactive map" and you get great context
in #OH01 it's particularly useful because you can see how brutal the gerrymander is here; the city of Cincinnati is cut apart, and a huge almost-entirely-red county gets attached in place of the missing light-blue Cincinnati pieces

About to listen to @PollsAndVotes drop some numerical knowledge on Wisconsin’s 2018 elections. #wipolitics
On the left: @judgedallet #scowis victory earlier this month. On the right: @ScottWalker re-elect victory in 2014. Via @PollsAndVotes
.@PollsAndVotes says he talks a lot about party polarization, but points to this chart of WI Supreme Court race outcomes and sees “very substantial variation in outcome” in part based on incumbency
Cathy Myers, Randy Bryce's primary challenger, is being told to "go away" and drop out.
This is exactly why I got so mad when the media normalized sexism when it was directed at Hillary.
Though more women are running than ever before, they're facing the same barriers HRC did.

I didn't even know that Randy Bryce had a primary challenger until today and I'm always on Twitter and going through the trending news stories.
Where is the national coverage for Cathy Myers? Why isn't her video being shared and praised?

I agree with what Diane said here. While I understand that #WI1 has national implications because whoever wins will challenge the Speaker of the House, this primary has become completely one-sided because of national discourse, which is steeped in sexism.
1/10 Like too many women, I know what it's like to prepare, work hard & be successful only to be ignored in favor of a less qualified man
2/10 My primary opponent @IronStache talks over me, changes positions w/o consequence & backed out of our debate kenoshanews.com/political-stoc…
3/10 He's acting like a career politician, but he's a career candidate that has lost 3 elections in the last 5 years, all landslide losses
