Thats the headline at the link.  I know it’s a reach but it may be fair to say that liberals in Nashville are not happy.

House Speaker Beth Harwell denies trying to gerrymander liberal Nashville Democrats Sherry Jones and Mike Stewart out of public office. Meeting with reporters after the unveiling of the GOP House redistricting plan this morning, Harwell said Republicans had no choice but to throw Stewart and Jones into the same district.

“There was absolutely no way to avoid that,” she said. “If you look at Rep. Mike Stewart’s district, it’s a downtown district. The population just doesn’t justify a downtown district. The growth in Davidson County has certainly happened on the southern border, and that’s why we had to put a new district there. We’ve gone out of our way to be as fair as possible. I can’t control the demographics of this state.”

Jones says she believes she was singled out because of her outspoken advocacy of liberal causes. Notably, she is one of the legislature’s few remaining strong proponents of abortion rights. Stewart, too, has been an increasingly vocal liberal, often taking the side of organized labor on issues before the House.
