Apparently, Ryan can run for reelection for his House seat while simultaneously running for VP. How safe is his district for the GOP after the redistricting?
Not safe. It's a tilt R-ish district that some people were wondering whether it would stay personally safe for Ryan now that he's in the spotlight so, but that the state GOP didn't feel the need to butter up in redistricting.
Oh, WI-01 got a dollop of margarine - it was Pubbed up by 80 basis points from 1.6% GOP PVI to 2.4% GOP PVI - and in that range, that is a BIG 80 basis points. It's tilt GOP generically. WI-07 up north in contrast has about a dead even PVI.
While Ryan certainly won't win by the margins he's won in the past since he's now in the national spotlight, I would assume he would be safe even if Obama carries WI-1, no?
