There's gift I've ever received has to be a bike when I was younger, a pedal bike.

It was a sort of slick little road bike and I remember it was all like it was so it was all wrapped up

but it was so obvious what it was obviously because nothing shaped like a bike and had a little ribbon on it

and I was so guest. For that was a life changer and I'm still sort of big on cycling around my area now

so for that one change me a little.

Hey can you hear me?

I called up cook political reports Dave Wasserman because I needed a guide.

Someone who could explain to me what just happened to New York State's congressional delegation.

Dave how would you describe New York's redistricting process this year?

Chaotic.

For the past few weeks New York's Democrats, people who represent me, have been getting increasingly anxious as they wait finalized congressional maps.

These maps were supposed to be settled on months ago but an independent commission couldn't agree on them.

The Democratic State Legislature drew their own maps but those got challenged in court.

Finally a judge threw all these maps out and had an independent special master start from scratch.

What he came up with it has not made the Democrats very happy.

When my congressman got really upset about the back and forth over these congressional maps

he made these digital ads where it was kind of interesting.

He said they have drawn congressional maps that are unfair.

But don't the Democrats control just about every lever of power in the state of New York?

Well except as it turns out the court of appeals which is the top court in the state.

They were hoping to offset what Republicans were doing in Texas and Ohio and Florida and elsewhere
