You can see here that CD 35 is not a winnable district.

If interested in the data, I wrote about it here:

If interested, I have a precinct-level analysis with demographic drill-downs up here.

Here is a comparison of the current CD 35 and the new map (PLANC2331).

Harris+34 -> Trump+11.

If interested, fully interactive versions of these maps with demographic and electoral drill-downs at the precinct level are available to subscribers.

I ran a deep precinct-level analysis, including a look at how radically the geographies change, as well as how electoral and demographic data changes under the new maps.

Austin's CD-35 (Greg Casar) is totally redrawn and re-seated in San Antonio. D+34 to Trump+11.

Automatic GOP pickup.

Austin:

Monday at 12:45 in the Capitol rotunda.

We’re gathering in the gallery to send a clear message: fair representation matters.

Your presence shows our leaders — and the public — that the people are watching.

This is the Texas Dem’s Hail Mary moment.

Texas’ safe-seat Congressional Democrats are sitting on over $16M.

They could fund the logistics of a quorum break without risking a single election.

The resources are there.

Is the courage?

Some Texas Democrats don’t have to worry about re-election. Extreme gerrymandering means their districts are “safe” in general elections.

They’re holding over $15 million in campaign cash — money that could stop Greg Abbott's gerrymandering attempt.

Three things.

1. Feel what you feel.
2. Do NOT let them rob you of your joy.
3. Take an action today.
