We went from roughly even, slightly favoring Dems, to extremely GOP. We had 13 seats, with 9/4 then 10/3 in their favor. The state supreme court made them redistrict which produced 7 R 6 D and 1 toss up which we won making 7/7. Then they redrew after we lost the state supreme court producing a 10/4 map in their favor, and now they will have an 11/3 map in their favor. That 11/3 will hold up even if we win 55% of the two party vote here.
