Now, I will tell you that they're splitting my district, so my constituents want me to represent them in both places? I mean, that's just the reality. They took 200,000 of us and put us into 33, and they left another 500, say 65,000 in 30. And so I will tell you that consistently, my constituents, no matter where they are, they want me to continue my representation. (22:25–22:37)
