69% to 25%, so it edges on 3 to 1, but out of 7 congressional districts only one favors democrats. Assuming most people of color vote blue (and they do assume that), then it clearly should be two districts to five at a minimum.

It's obvious that in this day of computers, Republicans have discovered a new way to retain power without all that tedious voting.
