"In 2008, Barack Obama won this district over Republican Senator John McCain in similar margins that Bush did against his opponents." Really? It's listed further down Obama had 57% compared to Bush's 50 and 52% respectively. Is a 5 to 7% swing considered a "similar" margin by a respected political source? If the statement can be referenced, then it should stay in, however if not it should be removed. Also Tom Davis was moderate as Republicans go, so I'm not convinced that the district was ever as far to the Right as it is made out to be. Can anyone confirm or refute my thinking on this?

As a proud past resident of Dale City, I can say definitively that it does not belong on the map used in this article as a landmark. It is a city that cannot be underestimated. 208.22.79.251 (talk) 18:26, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Map is outdated

[edit]

The 11th district boundries were changed in 2022. The current map in the article is wrong. 152.130.9.74 (talk) 22:53, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you have bothered to scroll a little down, you will see the new map just below the infobox. —twotwofourtysix(talk || edits) 23:43, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
