What happens when the margin of victory for the Republican candidate shrinks from 34.4 to 4.l percentage points?
Republicans cheat.
Associated Press, 9/14/2021
A Republican redistricting plan released Tuesday shores up a suburban Indianapolis district for the GOP while not making major changes to a potentially targeted Democratic district in northwestern Indiana.
The proposal for new congressional districts under the once-a-decade redistricting process shifts the northern tier of Democratic-leaning Marion County from the 5th District now held by Republican Rep. Victoria Spartz to that of Indianapolis Democratic Rep. Andre Carson. [emphasis added]
Democratic leaning?! Biden kicked Trump's butt in Marion County by a nearly 2-to-1 margin.
