I just realized my district is changing in 2012. Incredibly bad news.

My rep just went from Eddie Bernice Johnson in the 30th...

...to Pete Goddamn Effing Sessions in the 32nd.

I found this out at a Dallas Morning News sample ballot app they are hosting. When I got the startling option of Pete Sessions and Katherine Savers McGovern for Congress critter, I ran here to check the new lines.

Sessions picked up my condo with three blocks to spare. I may have to take to my bed for a couple of days.

I went from Lloyd Doggett to Lamar Freakin' Smith.

But apparently we're due for a round of reredistricting after November, so who knows.

I hope I'm still on Lloyd's calender list.

Holding out hope for Lloyd to represent us once again.

And in the worst case if we are stuck with Lamer - I will always consider Lloyd my true Representative anyway.
