a list of changes in the 2nd Congressional district boundaries since 1932:
the border in Providence has moved around
New Shoreham went from CD1 to CD2 once it switched counties in 1963 (Block Island used to be in the same county as Newport)
Burrillville was in CD1 for 20 years (1993-2013)
North Providence, North Smithfield, and Smithfield switched from CD2 to CD1 in 1972
So when CD1 was 64% Biden and CD2 was 56% Biden, trying to move both districts towards 60% probably isn't a high priority
