Russia is moving away from the idea of making major concessions at the Genoa conference.

The NY Legislature’s reapportionment map for congressional seats carves out a Republican seat in lower Manhattan, where there should be no Republican seat, but my question is... what reapportionment?

Oddly, they’re using the 1910 census as their basis.
