Democrats Didn’t Get Their Way on NY 11’s Congressional Map
The New York Independent Redistricting Commission voted today on a new set of district lines. (See new maps)
This is the important part to see which way the district leans (it’s on the right of the maps (here)
Very few changes were made on the NYC maps. The news said the changes were mostly made to the upstate maps. Online people said the changes were done to protect two incumbents – one in District 18 (Pat Ryan, a Democrat) and the other in District 19 (Marc Molinaro, a Republican).
I have a feeling the Democrats will cry about these lines. If lawmakers reject The Independent Redistricting Commission’s maps, they would have make new maps fast, as petitioning for the primary elections begins on February 27th.
