The districts were formerly gerrymandered by the Repugnantans to attain a lopsided victory in an otherwise fairly balanced State. The Supreme Court ordered them to re-draw them or they would do it themselves. Since the Repugs refused to do it it was done for them.
"Democrats couldn’t have asked for much more from the new map. It’s
arguably even better for them than the maps they proposed themselves.
Over all, a half-dozen competitive Republican-held congressional
districts move to the left, endangering several incumbent Republicans,
one of whom may now be all but doomed to defeat, and improving
Democratic standing in two open races."
