PA Supreme Court approves new congressional district map [View all]

This was just on the local noon news here.

The map looks good, compact district with few municipalities divided although the City of Pittsburgh is divided about in half. The northern and western part of Allegheney county that were in the old PA-17 being expanded in the new PA-17. This is still probably a swingish district as the northern part of Allegheney county is more conservative.

The new map throws to two R incumbents into the same district that is essentially the Allegheney National Forest and state game lands counties above I-80 and east of Erie.
