The sentiment that we should just let Texas slant the electoral landscape & CA shouldn't #redistrict in reverse is gullible AF.
This is what opposition like billionaire Charlie Munger Jr. is hoping you'll be naive enough to do.
This is the ONLY counterbalance to #Trump's attack on democracy.
We don't get a do over. If you're not doing something: canvassing, marching, calling your representative, going to townhalls, donating, ranting online , inspiring young people to participate this is your chance to defend America

For more than 25 years, the Cook Partisan Voting Index (PVI) has served as a useful metric to compare the partisan leanings of all 435 House seats and 50 states. Today, we're publishing historical PVI values for every set of congressional districts dating back to 1997 β all in one place. Together, the data illustrate how polarization and shifting boundaries have cut swing seats in half, profoundly altering House members's electoral incentives.
