Precinct 3119 & Redistricting

For now it looks like 3119 is going to stay firmly in Lamar Smith’s District 21.  But there is still some adjustments rumored in the areas west of NW Military Hwy along Wurzbach Parkway.  For those interested in following the overall redistricting kerfuffle an interactive map is available at this web page District Viewer.   Of interest to me is the extension of 21 across IH-10 into the Congressman Gonzales District 20. Sucking up USAA & the Medical Center.  Of course this is all in the courts so we don’t know how this is all going to turn out.
