In blue states, however, Democrats have been very aggressive.<\/p>\n<p>The establishment media have&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nymag.com\/intelligencer\/2021\/12\/democrats-are-doing-weirdly-well-in-redistricting.html\">taken<\/a> note&nbsp;since December of how \u201cweirdly well\u201d Democrats are performing. According to the Associated Press on Monday, Democrats are&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/voting-rights-new-york-legislature-state-legislature-redistricting-1511d08eb2ec109644439713eb9d44fb\">making<\/a> \u201csurprising inroads in redistricting fight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The reports have indicated Democrat legislatures are aggressively drawing lines in states such as Illinois, New Mexico, Oregon, Maryland, California, New Jersey, Nevada, and likely New York, while Republican legislatures have failed to draw strong lines in Missouri,&nbsp;Indiana, and Georgia.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>The Democrats\u2019 aggressive actions and the Republicans\u2019 weak efforts threaten the GOP\u2019s ability to win enough U.S. House seats to overcome its deficit of five. Moreover, Republicans must win enough seats to overcome establishment Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>Many establishment Republicans are likely to side with Democrats on important 2023-2024 issues, such as banning lawmakers from trading stocks, firing Dr. Anthony Fauci, and breaking up big tech.<\/p>\n<p>The specific districts that Republicans have failed to bend red are reportedly represented by Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-MO),&nbsp;Rep. Frank Mrvan\u2019s (D-IN), Rep. Lucy McBath (D-GA), and Rep. Carolyn Bourdeaux (D-GA).<\/p>\n<p>As those four districts will likely remain blue in Republican-controlled states, Democrats have made huge gains in blue states, racking up double-digit gains. It remains to be seen if the Republican-controlled states of Florida, Texas, North Carolina, and Ohio will compensate for the losses elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>In the coming months, all the state maps will become finalized.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"und\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rHaTdrpjgF\">pic.twitter.com\/rHaTdrpjgF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rep.
