New Voter Map

[ilikeverin]

Total population: 111 (by my count)
Ideal districts: 4 22s, 1 23

[ilikeverin]

As such, I'd like to put foward the following maps (note that all have a mere one Senator per district, and are thus not gerrymandered politically):



A sane one (Yes, I know, all the 'old fogies' from the forum are probably shocked); I think almost everyone would be fine with this one.



I call this one the 'Screw the South' map, because the Southeast could really use some major screwing right now.



I call this one the 'ILV and Friends!' map, because I tried to put as many people I consider friends (or at least, friendly aquaintances) in the green district as possible!   (Note: as I have two Senate friends, and I did not want to put them in the same district so they'd have to run against each other, I had to put the Senate friend that is geographically closest to me in my district.  Also, if I forgot any forum friends, I'm sorry I tried to get as many of you in my district as possible)

Although I am not Governor, I hope that at least one of these maps is put forward, though I'd prefer all three.

Why not swap Colorado, Wyoming and Montana for Texas? That would be more aesthetically pleasing to say the least

No, I rather like the Midwest being whole ...umm...

I dunno, to me it'd look rather odd to see Texas sticking out randomly.

[ilikeverin]

Blue East - 21
Grey - 24
Green - 23
Red - 21
Blue West - 22

This map is mostly about keeping as close to what we presently have as is reasonable.

This I can live with -it is at least saner than any of the ones ILV is proposing.

*sigh* Not this again...

[ilikeverin]

For all those who are so intent on keeping the entire south in one district, remember, we have regional senators now, we don't need the districts to make sense culturally.

We have never needed the districts to make sense culturally >P

Here's another good one:



The next one will be serious, I promise

[ilikeverin]

I like Joe's map a lot too...plus it has very defined regionality. The orange is west, the blue is midwest, the red is northeast, the green is southeast, and the yellow is...yet another region we'll have difficulty naming.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

DIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIE

Umm... wait... you're decent... I meant...

COMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMACOMA

(Yes, I used 'coma' as a verb; but I didn't want to stretch the forum out toooo much by copying and pasting 'GOINTOACOMA' multiple times.

How about 'Appalachia'?

What?

You contributed to what Alcon was saying!  Heresy!

[ilikeverin]

That is why I endorse Joe Rebpublic's map. It is more "outside of the box" that the other proposals.

As if mine wasn't?!?

What does it take to be taken seriously around here?

[ilikeverin]

Since running for senate, me and ILV seem to be; tried to make a map for fun, where compete against each other we would not.  Biased this map is, but turned out looking pretty good, it also did:



Propose this, I will not; but if like it, someone else does, propose it, they can.

P.S. Talk backwards for only three more days, I must

I support this map so you, PB, and I can all run (and win, of course )!

Here's my attempt at shaking things up.



District breakdown:

District 1: 23 voters
District 2: 22 voters
District 3: 22 voters
District 4: 23 voters
District 5: 22 voters

I like this one

Mine are the best, though

[ilikeverin]

Here's my attempt at shaking things up.

Like this one a lot, I do. Propose it for you, I will.

This is my second favorite map, behind 'ILV and Friends'.
Go chaotic redistricting!
-WMS, who is all for shaking up the districts and making no incumbent truly safe...

Make a CheeseWhiz vs. Gabu vs. Cosmo Kramer, this map would.

PBrunsel would be in that mix, too.

That can be solved by switching two of Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Indiana, and West Virginia.
