Gerrymandering favors Republicans nationally, but is very much a bipartisan issue state by state. The makeup of the court isn't really different than it was before Scalia died, except that Gorsuch is a traditional corrupt scumbag instead of a smarmy ideologue, so it's basically 4.5 vs 4.5 with Kennedy the swing vote.
Fair enough, business as usual then?
Can I ask what you mean by this:
"but is very much a bipartisan issue state by state"
Are you saying the State Electoral Commissions (or whatever you call them) are pretty evenly split, unlike the Federal ones which seem to be swarming with Repugs?
