Question: i’m interested in what state legislatures might look like for the 2020 redistricting. Is it possible that 2018 sees a large Democratic landslide on the local and state level, setting up a nationwide redistricting that potentially favors Democrats? Say that 2018 passes and Democrats control a larger share of governorships and legislatures. Then the 2020 Census happens. How quickly do the maps get redrawn? Before the 2020 election?
