I always wondered if the repugs really know their voters. I guess after the next couple of elections after all of the redistricting we'll know.

I wonder if repug efforts to invalidate redistricting efforts could backfire on the repugs (which I somewhat suspect is a strong possibility, being that not knowing their voters but pissing off voters too).
