Either way it looks bad!

“Exclusive: Jobs ‘Saved or Created’ in Congressional Districts That Don’t Exist – Recovery.gov Lists Millions Spent and Hundreds of Jobs Created in Districts Not on Map,” by Johnathan Karl

Here’s a stimulus success story: In Arizona’s 9th Congressional District, 30 jobs have been saved or created with just $761,420 in federal stimulus spending. At least that’s what the website set up by the Obama Administration to track the $787 billion stimulus says. ** There’s one problem, though: There is no 9th Congressional District in Arizona; the state has only eight Congressional Districts. ** There’s no 86th Congressional District in Arizona either, but the government’s recovery.gov Web site says $34 million in stimulus money has been spent there.
