Dina Titus unloaded on the state\u2019s redistricting process during a town hall on Wednesday with the&nbsp;AFL-CIO union members, according to the&nbsp;Nevada Current.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI totally got fucked by the Legislature on my district. \u2026&nbsp;I\u2019m sorry to say it like that, but I don\u2019t know any other way to say it,\u201d&nbsp;she <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nevadacurrent.com\/2021\/12\/16\/titus-unloads-on-fellow-nevada-democrats-says-they-botched-redistricting\/\">said<\/a> during the town hall. Titus explained how difficult reelection might be for her next year, saying the&nbsp;state legislators and Democrat Gov. Steve Sisolak botched the&nbsp;redistricting process in Nevada to create \u201cthree, competitive, risky districts,\u201d with hers being one of them.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>While the congresswoman represents the First Congressional District, \u201cTitus was referring to a shift of Democrats away from the first congressional district, historically an ironclad safe seat for Democrats, in order to strengthen their position in the state\u2019s two swing districts,\u201d the Nevada Current wrote. Tutus warned that the shift in seats from redistricting caused three Democrat-held seats to be at risk during the midterms.<\/p>\n<p>Torunn Sinclair, a spokeswoman from the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), said,&nbsp;\u201cDina Titus thought the Nevada Legislature was going to save her in 2022, but now she\u2019s freaking out because she knows she\u2019s going to lose.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou read that the Republicans are using gerrymandering to cut out Democratic seats, but they didn\u2019t have to in this state. \u2026 We did it to ourselves,\u201d she said, noting that the&nbsp;Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), the committee that oversees the House Democrat\u2019s election process, was \u201cstunned\u201d by the decision.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThey couldn\u2019t believe a Democratic Legislature and governor would do this to themselves,\u201d the Democrat&nbsp;congresswoman added about the DCCC\u2019s reaction to the process. \u201cThey could have created two safe seats for themselves and one swing. That would have been smart. (U.S. Rep.) Steven (Horsford) and mine and then a swing. No, no, we have to have three that are very likely going down.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Further regarding&nbsp;redistricting, she said,&nbsp;redrawing her district \u201cwould have been worth it\u201d if it created two other safe districts; however, the process created \u201cthree, competitive, risky districts.\u201d Titus said she&nbsp;\u201ctried to be part of the process when they were doing it, but they just didn\u2019t want to hear it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlus, it\u2019s a bad year,\u201d Titus said conceded, referring to the Virginia elections in November where the Democrats lost the governorship and the lieutenant governorship when&nbsp;Republicans turned out to vote, in a state that Biden won in 2020, in addition to the almost losing the governorship in New Jersey in a tight race.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRepublicans are going to turn out, and they are excited,\u201d Titus warned. \u201cDemocrats are kind of \u2018meh, I have to pay more gas prices.\u2019 Hispanics aren\u2019t going to want to turn out if we don\u2019t get something for immigration. I mean, why would they?\u201d She added that the way the congressional seats were redrawn would have&nbsp;consequences for Democrats in the future.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDina Titus sounds really worked up. Retiring might be a great way to help her take the edge off,\u201d said Congressional Leadership Fund Communications director Calvin Moore. \u201cTitus and her vulnerable colleagues have a tough decision to make: retire or get voted out anyway next fall.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>Jacob Bliss is a reporter for Breitbart News.
