As I understood it, the traditional pattern, while partly about gerrymandering, was also about racial geography: high concentration of Black voters in urban areas, where many of their votes were "wasted" in D supermajorities, while Rs won elsewhere with narrower majorities 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

So shouldn't the hard right turn of rural areas, where Rs now win by 50 or 60 point margins, create a similar effect? Is this just too small an issue to count, or am I missing something about the math? 3/ — PolitiTweet.org
