DRA stuff

Trying to do a 50-state map, transformed into an .svg because I like how it looks.

ooh where did you get the svg file

I made it in Inkscape, manually.

i mean like a blank template

Not sure what you mean. I made the maps in DRA, took screenshots of them, then made each district using the shape tool and reshaping it to be approximately the district, and then stitched the individual state district maps together.

oh, so did you manually draw the shape of each state?

Yeah, basically. I drew each district manually, which fit together to make the state.

Added several states.

I think it's coming along nicely. The PVI splits are (<1 | < 3 | <5 | <10 | <15 | <20 | <30 | 30+ ).

So far, there's 84 districts with a D-lean, 74 with an R-lean. 24 of the Democratic districts are under 5 PVI, 18 of the Republican districts are. So hypothetically, this is a 60 D - 56 R - 42 swing map. For context, the current map of these states has 31 swing districts, and the full map has a total of 72 districts between R+5 and D+5.

I have not done NYC or Long Island yet.

Here's an update on that 50-state project I've been doing. I've noticed they've gotten a bit more Democratic-gerrymandered in the Southwest.
