Well, 94% of votes in California live in counties that voted for Biden. There just aren't many areas that obviously entitled to a CD at the county-level (kern, NoCal, east of Sacramento and to its south). And they all got CDs https://t.co/bHqvRqhkOL — PolitiTweet.org

We can look at it in terms of counties, too. Counties are a key building block for districts, and it captures something that precincts don't get: whether the precincts are grouped together in a way that lend themselves to effcient/inefficient districting — PolitiTweet.org

Counties may seem arbitrary, but jursidictional lines are one of the key criteria for nonpartisan map making. There are jurisdictions that obviously deserve a Democratic CD in other states that don't get one (Cobb, Ft. Worth TX, etc.). There's nothing quite like that here — PolitiTweet.org
