Maryland Democrats could have easily drawn an even more partisan gerrymander if they wanted.

yeah lol they could have gone 8-0. They might have lost 2 seats in 2014 but almost certainly gain them back in 2018 if not 2016.

They could have drawn the map such that all 8 seats were more Democratic than the actual MD-06 is (R+06).

I remember drawing an 8-0 Maryland gerrymander once where every seat was at least D+08, and it was still cleaner that the actual map too.
