Maryland and Texas. And we have all the finalized or semi-finalized ones, unless I'm mistaken.

New York, Virginia, and Florida are the only 'big states' left, unless Arizona counts these days.

Can we get a version of the map including TN (and NM, I guess) without the Presidential colors, for use as a base? I mean, we can easily make them ourselves with the bucket tool in MS Paint, but it might be nice to keep the addition to the base consistent in the thread.

Texas doesn't have any congressional districts.


It doesn't? I thought a court ordered interim use of these districts.

The Supreme Court has stayed the order by the San Antonio district court.  After that happened, the district court extended the filing deadline, and said that candidates could specify which map they were filing under.

Is it known when the Supreme Court will make its decision?

Within ten days or so I should think we'll be able to say we've at least tentatively filled in everything south of Raritan Bay and west of Lake Erie.

I count 21 tossups on Miles's map.

I agree on WI-07. All of the Lake Superior districts are pretty competitive this year (I personally tend to think Cravaack will lose and Duffy will hold on; not sure about Benishek).

I heard that Giffords' district was now an Obama district, but I found the official map in DRA and it had McCain ahead. Can anyone clarify that?

What I heard was that it was very nearly tied and absent an Arizona Republican candidate might be thought more likely than not to go for Obama relative to the rest of Arizona.

Maybe it's just my impression, but NY (or at least upstate) seems exceptionally "clean" to me. Did they actually get a sound bipartisan compromise ?

Sort of. A court drew the map.

Why is the Delta district in Mississippi not the red one?
