Early projections: +4: Texas +1: Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Nevada, South Carolina, Utah and Washington. -1: New York, Illinois, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, Pennsylvania. Louisiana -2: Ohio Some potential gains for the GOP, which still runs well in the Sunbelt (city of Austin notwithstanding...) www.businessweek.com/news/2009-12-23/texas-to-gain-four-seats-in-reapportionment-analysis-shows.html |

The minus 1 column looks, with the potential exceptions of Louisiana and Iowa, like a list of small socialist nations under the yoke of years of communist Democrat control. Thankfully, Jersey has been freed at the gubernatorial level.

Thankfully, Jersey has been freed at the gubernatorial level. MA's had a Republican governor for 17 of the past 20 years, NY 12 of the past 15. Iowa, meanwhile is going on 12 years with a Democratic gov. |

Thankfully, Jersey has been freed at the gubernatorial level. Strangely, the minus states also look like a list of states with low immigration. Even more strangely, the plus states look like a list of states with high immigration. ( www.census.gov/prod/2003pubs/c2kbr-34.pdf) Also, I wouldn't suggest using gubernatorial party affiliation as any indication of free/not free from the communist yoke. Minnesota hasn't had a democratic governor since 1991 and for most of the past decade had a Republican-controlled state legislature. |

Heh, well at least the Massachusetts redistricting won't matter.
