ROLL CALL: New North Carolina Map Gives Democrats More Heartburn.

North Carolina Republicans released a second draft of a new Congressional map Tuesday that is worse politically for Democrats than the original version released earlier this month.

The new map draws Democratic Reps. Brad Miller and David Price together into Price’s 4th district and puts Democratic Reps. Mike McIntyre and Larry Kissell together in Kissell’s 8th district.

Expect the Justice Department to run interference for the Democrats, arguing that anything that reduces Democratic representation is ipso facto racist.
