It is absolutely ridiculous. The Commie Cummings district goes by City Hall of Baltimore, a lot of west Baltimore then up into part of Baltimore County’s rural areas like they have anything in common with Baltimore City’s slums.
After the 2000 census, GA dems redrew our rural district by joining heavily black East Atlanta with heavily black Macon 85 miles away via a narrow “land bridge” bordering I-75 South. Being in the “bridge”, we went from being represented by Newt Gingrich one day to Cynthia McKinney the next. It took SCOTUS several years to order a redo.
I was all excited when Andy Harris got elected ad they redistricted. I met him one day and said it would be good to be well represented. He told me to look at the map again. His district circles right around my town so I’m still stuck with Ruppersberger.
