Do you think the redistricting will help Dems in your district?

I did a bit of research today about my own district (9) and I don't think we'll do a whole lot better. I so wanted Lisa McClain, the election denier to be booted, but I haven't heard much about the Dem candidate, Brian Jaye and I'm wondering why.

It’s not technically a ‘new’ district, just the area I was in was in a solid blue district comprised of a blue county and a grand swath of my different county …
We were dropped in the new lines drawn … so now I’m in a district that heads south, and is so red there isn’t even a Dem rep for Congress … no Dem on the ballot, just repugs on the R ballot.
So I’m pissed about it, but not much I can do …

All the high population blue areas have been cut out of the district. It's a shoo-in for the crazies.
