The "independent" redistricting committee made CD-06 more Republican. According to 538, CD-06 is R+7.
It's a good reminder that the governor has great control over the members on the Commission on Appellate Court Appointments. This commission selects 25 applicants for the five AIRC positions. Ducey stacked this commission to his advantage when he was governor. Non-coincidentally, Ciscomani's wife was appointed to the commission by Ducey.
As a result of the 2021 redistricting, AZ went from five out of nine Dem Representatives in the U.S. House to three out of nine.
It's of utmost importance for the 2031 redistricting, to keep a Dem as governor in 2026 and have districts drawn that are more competitive for both parties.

The next person to get Cisco to speak up gets a free weekend in El Salvador.
I was going to ask for an interview ...
Perfect.
