I'm working on it now, but have to take a break for a meeting momentarily. I suspect everyone regularly here is also doing it.

I am stuck at 5 and 5/7 of districts - I don't thing one can stretch the map any more. All my districts are near best pop, and at 7 exactly. I don't think here are any D precincts left on the map.

edit: was able to get it a bit tighter, but still about 150K off

As I posted on Twitter, here are my maps:



This is as close you can get (perhaps a few thousand closer with precinct adjustments) while staying above D+7.



This is as democratic as you can reasonably get, which as was calculated in the thread, was around 6.5 while not considering geography. When considering geography, 6.44-6.45 doesn't seem all that bad.
