[EM] Rural voters crucial in House election battle

D- Gerrymander power -- What a total ANTI- Democracy political fraud.

When will AP ever hear about proportional representation -- producing NO safe 
1 party seats ???

The 435 Rep. folks (along with the 100 U.S.A. Senators) are now taxing the 
general public and spending for special interest gangs about $ 2.1 TRILLION

Rural voters crucial in House election battle

WASHINGTON (AP) -- From the Maine woods to the New Mexico desert, rural 
America is disputed territory in the battle for control of the House 
this fall, and Democrats are appealing for votes across a cultural 
divide of gun control, abortion and religion. 

***

Only about 40 of the nation's 435 House districts seem likely to be 
competitive this fall, and thus determine whether Democrats gain the 
seven seats they need to win control. More than 15 of those are rural, 
some heavily so.
