What you’re looking at.
The enacted map
The districts a state actually used that cycle — U.S. Census shapefiles, colored by the real U.S. House result. Its seat tally is the official, documented outcome.
The neutral baselines
Splitline and ReCom redraw all 435 seats from population and geography alone — no map-maker, no partisan or incumbency input, reproducible from a published rule.
What the gap means
Hold the votes fixed; only the lines change. The distance between the enacted plan and a neutral one is the structural effect of how the map was drawn.
