I was referring specifically to MN with my comment. Overall I agree but at this point there are lots of districts ready to come on line soon and others that are well past a good time to start. So I believe that needs to be the top priority and once that shakes out then it is time to try and balance the few remaining Regionals.

To have true geographic representation you need to close borders otherwise what happens when someone from outside of that state border comes in and is in the position to get one of those for lack of a better term "bonus spots"? Do they get passed over because they are not from within that political boundary? Do they get the spot and risk the "but they stole our spot"?
