FYI Jay Inslee used to represent WA-04, so even if he wasn't likely vacating his seat I'd say it doesn't matter much where he lives. The guy will move anywhere.

How many Rossi LDs can you draw? (Out of 49)

I've made it to 28.

Yeah, he has since moved to downtown Everett. I think he started out in Lake Stevens, hence the confusion. Nevertheless, Everett is only in WA-1 in my ideal map. My abomination (AKA incumbent gerrymander, which tragically may be closer to reality) gives him Everett.

It's not like Congressmen moving is unprecedented, though. Baird moved to Vancouver after the 2000 redistricting, IIRC.

Also what Jay Inslee did, the definition of shameless.

Wouldn't that seat still be heavily Rossi?

Starting to sound like Washington as is shouldn't be a state if it's so hard to get to one side from another, not that I'd support splitting it as that'd benefit Republicans.

I wouldn't be so annoyed if it wasn't for the fact the likely Dem candidate in WA-01 is a right wing anti-labor hack. He's so bad on labor issues the teacher's union endorsed his Republican opponent last election. So even if won we get a Democratic version of Scott Walker, ugh.

Does the legislative map resemble this in any way? This was a thought experiment I did a few months ago to see if I could draw a majority Republican legislature:




29 Rossi districts in this map.
