(Rev.) 2010s NY superimposed over 1990s NY

UPDATE: Revised maps in comments

Here are two maps of the NY congressional districts imposed by the courts superimposed over the NY districts from the 1990s.  I did not touch NYC.  All blue lines are the approximate borders of the new districts.

This map
This is really hard to make out...

From suburban Chicago's North Shore, now living on suburban Philadelphia's Main Line. Back home until July.

What makes it hard?

The way
it is drawn makes it very hard to make out.  

Republican Medical Doc from New York, NY

Yes
The bold blue lines should trace the 1992 districts, not the 2012 ones, since those are already clearly distinguishable by their colors. It's very hard to see the black lines.

[ Parent ]
Agreed.
And, I am not sure what the point of the diary is without more analysis.

it
It does show the collapse of population in upstate NY

Let's not forget to thank akosmowski for the map!
Thank you! I appreciate your hard work. I do agree, however, that I'd be able to appreciate more if I could see the old lines better!

A revision is coming.
Thanks for your comments.  I will have a revision up by the end of the day.

About
Elections have consequences -- from the race for President to the race for one seat on a city council. The political economist Max Weber wrote that the state possesses a monopoly on the legitimate use of force. But in the United States, the state is divided into myriad federal, state, and local entities. And the elections to fill those entities are the products of the fascinating interactions between campaigns, party affiliations, voter turnout, and the media spotlight. Red Racing Horses analyzes those elections -- from a Republican-leaning perspective -- to keep a close eye on the process of electing officials, and to offer our perspective on the election-related issues of the day. Thank you for visiting, and we hope you'll enjoy the blog.
