A different AZ:




1. 56-43 McCain (R+16)
2. 50-49 Obama (R+2)
3. 60-39 Obama (D+22) (52% Hispanic)
4. 57-42 McCain (R+18)
5. 60-38 McCain (R+30)
6. 61-38 McCain (R+30)
7. 58-41 McCain (R+22)
8. 51-48 Obama (EVEN)
9. 66-33 Obama (D+34) (54% Hispanic)
10. 50-49 McCain (R+6)
11. 54-45 McCain (R+14)
12. 63-36 McCain (R+32)

Democrats are guaranteed two seats and could win 3 others (2, 8, 10). 11 might become more favorable to them as the state changes more demographically.

You can't dice up the rez!

Easy enough, I can take some of Scottsdale away from AZ-1 and give it the rest of Healapai, give that part of Scottsdale to the 6th and then balance out population between the 5th and the 6th. But why does this matter? It won't create a new swing district or anything. It's no different than the splits of Tucson and Chandler on the map.

You also split the rez in the phoenix area.

Anyway, a map like that would never pass with the rezzes diced up. And reservations are basically the obvious-est community of interest that there is; it's gerrymandering at its finest to do that.
