the redistrict is probably what fucked him, but better relationship with the state party also probably gets him a less brutal redistrict

The district map has shifted quite a bit in the last few redistricting cycles.

Yeah, there was less than 3,000 votes total coming out of the Bronx in 2022. Bowman got 6,682 votes from the Bronx this time. Turnout surged massively in both counties and he lost.
