Wave Gives GOP Upper Hand in Drawing Election Map

The worst thing about the election, Wave gives GOP upper hand in drawing election map "Once every decade, state legislators begin the process of redrawing congressional districts to reflect changes in population, a process that can serve to insulate representatives from future difficult re-elections. According to the nonpartisan National Conference of State Legislatures, Republicans will now hold about 53 percent of the total state legislative seats across the country. Republicans gained at least 680 seats, the largest gain by either party since 1966, said NCSL."
