I was looking at the the New York congressional map and noticed that the districts in NYC look nasty. There are districts that snake in and out of boroughs (NY-7 & NY-10) for example. Normally I'd say it was gerrymandering, but everything in NYC except Staten Island voted 80% Obama. It seems pointless to ignore natural boundaries when there' no seats to be gained. What gives? Is there some GOP pocket in Brooklyn that I don't know about?
