Meanwhile on #NCGA House Station 1 Rep. Hall's House map is being worked on - HBK-7
Durham is being worked on - Durham people, how does this House map look to you so far? @bribrough ?
@bribrough Some changes made, the districts now look like this:
@bribrough Panning away this is what Durham and Orange
@bribrough Next is Buncombe. Interestingly, as I recall, Buncombe county commissioner seats must line up with NC House seats.
@bribrough How do #AVL and Buncombe people feel about these House districts?
@bribrough After this, the person at the terminal gets printouts of these two areas and leaves.
@bribrough They come back and these are the House districts drawn for Cumberland.
@bribrough Zoom out of this area
@bribrough Onslow and Duplin
@bribrough Adjusted and recolored
@bribrough Closer look at Onslow
@bribrough Onslow again.
@bribrough Wayne
@bribrough This whole area got blanked out in Hall's House map and he's starting over.
@bribrough Another Onslow
@bribrough A very different Wayne
@bribrough Changes made to Randolph and Chatham
@bribrough More changes to this area
@bribrough Durham gets cleared out and drawn again
@bribrough It looks like this has Durham's municipal boundaries overlaid
@bribrough Yet another version of Wayne
@bribrough Gaston and Cleveland
@bribrough Henderson
@bribrough Rutherford, Henderson, Polk
@bribrough With these two together you can see how that strange purple district goes all the way from Polk through the southern edge of Rutherford to Cleveland County.
@bribrough Moving back to the Triangle
@bribrough Looks like Hall came back and did another different version of that Polk / Rutherford / Cleveland area
@bribrough Here's a good view of Gaston, Mecklenburg, and Cabarrus
@bribrough More detail on Mecklenburg
@bribrough Apparently they haven't even put in all 13 districts, so now they're going to have to unassign some pieces of other districts to make room for it? The way they're going about this is wild.
@bribrough That little white bit marked "Unassigned" is where they're going to try to shoehorn in the district that was left out
@bribrough That didn't seem to work - so they're continuing to move things around
@bribrough So this happened
@bribrough They finally fit that 13th district in, so this is what we have - would love to hear from Meck / #CLT people about what they think!
@bribrough Hall says that this map actually contains some groupings that weren't what they wanted, and that this will be fixed tomorrow.
@bribrough Basically we've seen a bunch of different versions of different areas and tomorrow they plan to pick the ones they actually want and put them in the map. No doubt that's what all the print outs are in service of.
@bribrough So this seems to be where Hall is ending today with the House but not what will be in the final version exactly.
