Re your reason #1, it’s disturbing to me how effortlessly in synch political reporters are with the values and interests of their sources. It seems that both are more interested in learning and following the rules of the game than in questioning them.
Looks to me like the shift to WCN since 2010 was also an unforeseen consequence of Redmap. The map drawers got themselves a bunch of extreme, heavily gerrymandered districts that could be won without the support of swing voters. To the extent that the Republican Establishment helped to engineer Redmap, they wrote themselves out of power.
Where can we find the rankings of House districts by evangelical density? How can we identify the Republican House members who represent the least white evangelical districts?
Thank you. This is very powerful, and well written.
Can you add Threads to the list of social media we can share to?
