Wow.
I'm distinctly not shocked that the only Democrat who answer Watchdog's query didn't even understand the complaint.
Cool site, though. I was unaware of it. Looks like a good site to watch. I'm sure Hoosier will not approve, though.

Re: New Congressional Districts
Since all three are held by families, the offices passed down from parent to sibling, they should call them not Districts but Fifedoms 88, 43 and 3.

So, is this "redistricting" Plan B since ACORN is banished from "helping out" with the 2010 census?

I thought District 00 was for the voters that reside in the cemeteries throughout the state.
