FLORIDA’S CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT 22

This district has been –significantly- altered by the Florida State Congress.  It still stretches along the South East shoreline of Florida.  From  Palm Beach County all the way up to the borderline of Broward and Dade counties.  The Dade section has been excised.  The district used end in Miami Beach (where Democratic voters are clearly the majority).  Instead, now the district encompasses additional territory in Palm Beach (where Republicans dominate).   The population of my district is 600,000 (95% are white and 5% black). Close to 12% are Hispanics (about the same rate as the national average).  One forth the population ranges from 25-to-44 years of age, and one third of the people of this district are older than 60.  Jewish and Italian-born Americans are the majority ethnic groups.    Below this line can be seen a scan of my district, before (left) and after (right) the apportioning.
