Newly proposed #ncga Congressional redistricting map just dropped. Looks like it swaps a few counties in the east to make NC-1 into a district where Trump got 55% last year, while moving Rep. Don Davis' home county into GOP Rep. Greg Murphy's district #ncpol

The North Carolina Supreme court elections of 2020 & 2022, where the GOP flipped *4* seats, have proved extraordinarily consequential in the following years. It's allowed Republicans to gerrymander their way from a 7-7 map to now a 11-3 map.
