I’ve been going through the proposed legislative maps approved yesterday and matching Senate incumbents to their new districts. Mute this thread if you don’t care, it’s going to get long. 1/? #AZLeg Many thanks to @AndyfromTucson, who mapped the districts on Google Maps, making my job easy. I used the addresses in our legislative directory (the “green book”) and on financial disclosure statements to determine which districts incumbents are in.

The excel file at the top were fun to go through. According to my math the average legislative district has 28,118 voters. The five districts with the least voters are 10, 23, 27, 33 and 31. Five with the most are 2, 14, 18, 19 and 21. #idleg #idpol District 14 (Star/Eagle) is the most populated in the state and it's not close. It has 45,985 registered voters. District 27 (Mini-Cassia) is the least populated at 18,882 and it's also not close. #idleg #idpol

One reason I find this interesting is most of the #maskmandates so far have been in places where Democrats control local politics. This would be the first one in a more Republican city. #idpol #idahoCovid19 postregister.com/news/local/ida… via @thepostregister Bonneville County’s quirky. The local GOP central committee is one of the most conservative in the state but the City Council is actually pretty liberal, it’s a mix of Republicans, Democrats and independents. They recently voted to expand the local anti-discrimination ordinance.

Today's general session at the Idaho Republican convention has started. Started with a prayer, pledge and the singing of the first (the one everyone knows) and less commonly known fourth verses of the Star Spangled Banner #idpol Sen. Risch is speaking now. Said he brings greetings from Trump and that if the national media think they have him down they're wrong. "It drives the other side crazy, too bad for them. He does give America the leadership it demands." #idpol
