New faces, new districts, and more competition Guest Commentary by Ron Nehring Let’s take a quick look at the draft Assembly, State Senate and Congressional district maps in San Diego County. While these drafts may change in the weeks ahead, they give us good insight into the direction things are moving, and therefore, who’s likely to gain, and whose jobs …

Who wants to be a Republican Congress Member? — June 7 maps create the “Gold” one shown here …… Poway Roger take Note !
Oh Doctor! Overnight the State Redistricting Commission posted their June 7th revised maps, and voila, a no-incumbent Republican congressional seat appears! (Susan Davis is in the “blue” district. Other incumbents are to the North, East and South.) The “new” district has Rancho Bernardo, Point Loma, Penasquitos, La Jolla, Mira Mesa, Clairemont, Bay Park, Scripps Ranch and the City of Poway. This …
North County Update — new June 7 maps still feature Rocky Chavez against Sherry Hodges on the Coast, with Marie Waldron of Escondido the Inland Front-Runner
Greetings, Redistricting fans! Overnight the Calif. Citizens Redistricting Commission published draft new State Assembly maps, and in North County they still create a Coastal district (Oceanside, Carlsbad, Encinitas), and an Inland seat (Escondido, Fallbrook, Ramona). If adopted, this map means a potential Rocky Chavez (of Oceanside) vs. Sherry Hodges (of Encinitas) GOP race along the Coastline. It is also very good news …
UPDATE …. Draft 39th Senate seat voted 52% Meg Whitman, just 40% Jerry Brown — So Who wants to be a GOP State Senator?
Credible new number-crunching reveals the revised 39th state senate seat depicted above (held by Chris Kehoe now) would have a 38% to 34% GOP registration edge, and backed Meg Whitman vs. Jerry Brown by a 52% to 40% margin in 2010. (Hat tip to Redistricting Partners group.) Stunner! This would now be a clear-cut GOP seat, not just a competitive one, if adopted …
Preliminary State Senate Maps — Toni Atkins now has a Rocky Road to the Upper House — Republicans could regain SD 39
Last January 31, SD Rostra foresaw a Republican takeover chance in mid-county’s 39th State Senate District. That prediction looks pretty good in preliminary maps (see above) issued this week by the State Redistricting Commission’s staff. The area now served by Chris Kehoe would add Republican strongholds like Rancho Bernardo, Penasquitos, San Carlos, Tierrasanta, and Scripps Ranch. The maps also seem to show El …
Preliminary North County Assembly Maps— Rocky Chavez vs. Sherry Hodges on The Coast— Marie Waldron now the Inland District Republican frontrunner
The State Redistricting Commission will view these draft maps drawn by their staff this week. View all of them here for the entire state: http://wedrawthelines.ca.gov/meeting_handouts.html If they are adopted (no certainty!) here’s how they appear to affect North County’s Assembly districts. Caveat: These analyses are written on the fly, and the Maps may well be changed later. First, the COASTAL …
Other San Diego Assembly Maps — Martin Block’s AD 78 is “dismembered” — and GOP gets pick-up Chance on Coast
If the preliminary California Staff-prepared maps stand up, here are the remaining SD County Assembly maps, and they all spell T-R-O-U-B-L-E for Assemblyman Martin Block (D), and an OPPORTUNITY for Republicans to win a Coastal district from Democrats. http://wedrawthelines.ca.gov/meeting_handouts.html Block faces 3 options: (1) stay in his current East SD home and challenge popular GOP incumbent Brian Jones in a …
Shhhhh! — Republicans can win a Redrawn 39th senate seat…. Attn: Poway Roger, D7 Voter, Barry Jantz.. Act now, Pilgrims!
Next August the voter-approved ‘Cititzens Redistricting Commission’ will release newly-drawn maps for all state Senate, Assembly and Congressional districts. This is your Distant Early Warning that senate seat 39 [Kehoe, term-limited] will likely see the biggest changes in San Diego county, and they are certain to make it competitive for Republicans again. The next GOP senator from the 39th may be living …
