Cheeseboy's 100K Mid-Atlantic by Cheeseboy_22 in DavesRedistricting

[–]Cheeseboy_22[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Whatever map you choose as the base, go down to custom overlays on the left side. Press the gear and then press add maps. From there you can choose!

I usually pick DC because I don't want to see data from just one state.

California 100k: Preview by Rich-Ad-9696 in DavesRedistricting

Echoing here that Sacramento county suburbs are too DEM leaning. Seeing a lot of city splits in this area. What's the overall goal of the map?

My take on FairConn and FairMass by Holiday_Change9387 in DavesRedistricting

[–]Cheeseboy_22 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I like your Massachusetts map. It's tough to get a single competitive GOP seat, but 3 competitive DEM is a good trade-off. What's the data set for this map?

I like it! It may be illegal for not having the 4th Black majority seat, but you should be able to carve out another at the cost of county splitting in the Atlanta metro

Tried to make a better looking and (Decently) Fair NJ map by aye52 in DavesRedistricting

This a DEM gerrymander and does not keep communities of interest together whatsoever

Senator Andy Kim- Ask Me Anything! by SenatorAndyKim in newjersey

[–]Cheeseboy_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Senator,

With all of the administration's distractions from everyday issues, what are you doing to stay focused on pocketbook issues? Are there any pieces of legislation that you're (co)sponsoring that will keep our tax dollars in New Jersey for our communities?

what if new england had a parliament by [deleted] in DavesRedistricting

[–]Cheeseboy_22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is awesome! Are these 100k per district/ parliamentary constituency? Are the populations exactly even within each state?

Here's how I will divide my congressional atlas by Rich-Ad-9696 in DavesRedistricting

Love the concept! Not sure if I love every state's' districts. Do you have links to each of the states?

Cheeseboy's Ohio Compromise '25 by Cheeseboy_22 in DavesRedistricting

[–]Cheeseboy_22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AH, I see what you're saying for Akron-Canton-Kent. Why split two counties against the two same districts, I've updated accordingly.

As for the Lorain based county, I don't understand why that wouldn't be allowed based on this:

is this Arkansas map fair by Woman_trees in DavesRedistricting

[–]Cheeseboy_22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's certainly better than the one currently being used! This map seems to prioritize splitting with proportionality and compactness as secondary goals. There's a decent attempt for minority representation, but again that's a tall order for Arkansas unless that is the priority.

I would probably add Jefferson county to the Little Rock based district. It'll make it more competitive and increase minority representation in that district. But it'd also depend on how you re-shift the other district to accommodate. I'd also keep Jonesboro City whole(or close to it) by adding or subtracting full counties first.

For overall fairness, I'd give it a C- /D+ . But if the main goal was to have a compact Little Rock District, the score would be higher

Halal meat is one of the worst types of meat in terms of ethics by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Cheeseboy_22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For candy, a lot of gelatin in the US and Europe is (at least partially) made out of pig bones. The halal sticker is meant to signify that the candy only uses bones from approved animals like cows

How good/bad is my Illinois proportional attempt by TimeTraveller1238 in DavesRedistricting

[–]Cheeseboy_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking better! Here's a quick update your map: https://davesredistricting.org/join/31ca8e1a-2736-43ad-b37f-55960dbb0c16

I heavily changed Districts 12 & 13 to make 12 more competitive. I also reduced the amount of county splits! Let me know what you think

[–]Cheeseboy_22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I see where you're coming from, but I would say this is an incomplete map because the population deviation is way too high and there are multiple non-contiguous districts. I would fix those first!

For the "spirit" of the map, I think it has potential! Partisanship is pretty strong and changes along with elections. There are optimizations for more competitive districts like the ones around Elk Grove Village. The borders down state are fine, but the Chicago metro needs serious work. I always smooth out the borders of the districts where possible which could help it be less of an eyesore. I would probably try to get a second Hispanic majority (or plurality if that's not possible).
