Just curious ... seems like great news, just wondering how great. Was this one drawn to FAVOR a Repuq? If so, that's freaking SWEET!

Always good to flip a seat, but was it redrawn to try to HELP the incumbent -R, or was it redrawn to sacrifice that one seat to get two others for their own side type of thing?

If the former, that's particularly sweet
