Per Roll Call in Feb 2022:

Trump won the old 1st District by 20 points, but Joe Biden would have won the newly drawn 1st very narrowly, 48.9 percent to 48.5 percent. That’s winnable terrain for Republicans in the current political environment [note this was written in Feb], but it could become problematic for Harris in future cycles if the tide turns toward Democrats.
