2022 #Midterms Simulation: #ArtoftheGerrymander
A Republican House win will be built on gerrymanders (TX/GA/FL/TN/LA, etc.)
To illustrate the need for fair maps, I'm calculating the results using the 2022 votes, but if every state had a Democratic gerrymander. #ElectionTwitter

Methodology:
I’ll apply the difference in Presidential margin to the House result. Thanks @davesredist @mikemathieu @vest_team + @DKElections @PoliticsWolf
Keen to see how my maps perform over the decade; tried to comply with state law if partisan intent were allowed to stand.

BREAKING: New @OversightDems report shows how Californians could be impacted by the Trump Administration’s unwillingness to defend people with pre-existing conditions.
SPOILER ALERT: It’s terrible news for A LOT of Californians. More on the report here: bit.ly/2ynhL4v.

In California, if the Trump Administration is successful in its attempts to roll back Affordable Care Act protections, as many as 1,321,000 people could lose federal protections against coverage denials or premium increases, including as many as 78,000 people in #CA33 alone.
If President Trump and Republicans succeed in rolling back pre-existing condition protections, 50,000 #CA33 constituents with pre-existing health conditions are at risk of coverage loss or premium increases. #ProtectOurCare
📌 (1) While we all thought the #PodestaGroup was gone turns out their work only wrapped up at the end of 2017, a recent FARA filing shows they continued work with Hong Kong, Japan, India, Azerbaijan, Moldova, Center for Media Studies at Saudi and anti Qatar PR campaign
(2) Here are the lobbyists who found themselves unemployed at the end of 2017 though if history proves anything surely they’ve moved on to another firm.
(3)While “broke” good old Tony Podesta managed to continue his campaign contributions to @dccc @SenFeinstein while the other lobbyists stayed mostly loyal to all things Democrat.
