Redistricting draws unregulated cash

POLITICO.com:
"Much of the money will go to legal fights, as both sides expect lawsuits under the Voting Rights Act as states start redrawing congressional maps to reflect the population and demographic shifts of the past decade.

The size and scope of this unregulated fundraising effort shows just how much is at stake with redistricting this year for both parties. Rust Belt states like Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania will be losing seats as the U.S. population continues to shift toward the South and West. New York will also lose two seats. Texas will gain four congressional seats, cementing its status as the second-biggest House delegation after California. Florida will also add two seats of its own."
