So only 10 CD's swung to the GOP in 1992. (Which one in NYC, BTW?). That's got to be the year with the least number of swings (in the opposite direction) of those mapped so far.

That was NY-16.  I'm not sure why it swung either (although I have a couple guesses, if you want).

1988-1992 Presidential swing b/CD



quite a few Dukakis/Perot voters in Iowa and the Central North.

I'd have thought that will be a reversion to normal voting patterns after the farm crisis distorted things in 88.

This was before the Supreme Court decreed 'one man, one vote', so most gerrymandering took the form of malapportionment, not the form of weird lines it does now.

Economic score: +4.84
Social score: -6.52

At this rate, I'll lean left economically within a year or so Tongue

it's very possible to gerrymander with straight lines even with "1 man 1 vote.

those seats in lower Manhattan look like they dissected neighborhoods in some very egregious ways.

Michigan's 5th.  Smiley  It was also one of the few districts to swing against Reagan in 1980 (which shouldn't be much of a suprise lol).
