Why some folks think re-districting of county lines went poorly this election seas.


   Robert Garrett, of The Dallas Morning news, wrote earlier this evening about why Robert Draper thinks re-mapping, and re-districting, can, and did go terribly wrong in the state of Texas this election season.  Robert Draper, a Texan, wrote in The Atlantic magazine, “that the state GOP’s “mangled effort” to extract a net gain of four Republican U.S. House seats — and  to yield not a single new one to Hispanics and blacks who fueled Texas’ population growth — triggered an “entirely predictable consequence” that Hofeller and other Washington Republicans warned of.”
     This is a very liberal point of view of how re-districting went, although an interesting topic, nonetheless.
