Basically, the underlying political geography of Texas is very favorable to Democrats in redistricting. It's really a Democratic dream. As a consequence, the GOP gerrymandering basically turns what ought to be a lean Dem map into a tilt Rep map https://t.co/TM7XSw81y5 — PolitiTweet.org

the texas maps are already pretty fair by partisan fairness measures, despite being fairly brutal GOP gerrymanders! https://t.co/FQ0KxJ8H4E — PolitiTweet.org

@Nate_Cohn Biden won half the state house and a majority, 16 of 31, state senate seats!

Conversely, in a state like WI, where geography is very friendly to the the GOP, a strong enough gerrymander can turn a lean Rep map into basically perpetual GOP control — PolitiTweet.org
