For the 4th of July here is a map of the current congressional districts. The blue/red shading shows which party holds the seat. Click any district and the popup includes the representative’s name and some other info.

There is at least one additional layer I plan to add to the map. It will show the republican districts that were won by less than 12 points. I will post the map again when that layer is added.

and #socialconservatives."
