He lost his rep seat to someone who became the fucking senator later, good fucking work
Don’t ever go to /b/
He's literally just some one-term loser, wow.
Why are there so many like him?
Money
he literally rode the 2010 wave and barely took the seat
what an absolute faggot
And he's a fucking moderate
that guy he goes "if trump does anything to mueller I'm gonna disavow" as if he's anything more than an irrelevant radio host
He makes me realize my view of politics is somewhat too Louisiana-oriented looking at his circumstances actually
He's a suburban politician
and it's 70% white
but his district voted 62% Obama in 2008
And Clinton won 58 to 36
What state is he from?
illinois
Illinois
Oh
Yeah fuck him
My district, LA-1, is basically made of New Orleans suburbs.
Pretty much yeah
His best "scandal" ever was when they revealed he had some small ties to David Duke
>just slides into another 70% landslide reelection
Pretty much any scandal he's been into's been wiped out tenfold by that berniebro
good thing he made it past that
Yeah pretty much
Also, a recent surprise for me was that Louisiana didn't lose our seventh CD because of a decrease in population (due to Katrina)
It was actually just that our population didn't grow fast enough.
The first of those maps is kinda off. Why incorporate all those blacks on east bank Plaquemines into the swing district?
Plaquemines as a whole voted over 60% Trump.
And as a whole you could actually just throw those voters into the other district and it wouldn't even swing it red.
In fact, the population there is so small, you actually wouldn't have an issue with needing to shrink the district elsewhere, either.
The second map isn't actually as bad as it could be, either.
The worst case scenario is gerrymandering all of the Republicans into Acadiana, probably, since Louisiana is 60% Republican.
Yeah that got struck down by a court
Outrageous gerrymander from the 90s
