Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the new congressional map, which would give the GOP four additional seats.
Florida should be able to use the map in November for midterms, but I bet someone will file a lawsuit today.
“Florida got shortchanged in the 2020 Census, and we’ve been fighting for fair representation ever since,” DeSantis said last week. “Our population has since grown dramatically, and we have moved from a Democrat majority to a 1.5 million Republican advantage. Drawing maps based on race, which is reflected in our current congressional districts, is unconstitutional and should be prohibited.”
Florida will still have 28 Congressional districts.
The Republicans hold 20 of those Congressional seats.
The new map has four seats that lean Republican represented by the following Democrats:
Congressional districts 10, 23, 20, and 24 lean Democrat.
