What happens when the margin of victory for the Republican candidate shrinks from 34.4 to 4.l percentage points?

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.
