Tl;dr: Democrats have kneecapped themselves by passing laws (years ago) that restrict gerrymandering. Republican controlled states don’t do that.
They could always repeal them.
Or just ignore them, like any Republican would do.
Just fire the people standing in your way. Trump is giving you the playbook. Use it!
The Dems have effectively cucked USAians into fascism LOL
What a frame. Gerrymandering is illegal but doesn’t face the same headline assertion.
It’s illegal when done for racial reasons (Miller v. Johnson). When done for partisan reasons, I don’t believe it is.
Edit: The planned response is to gerrymander CA and NY:
California Gov. Gavin Newsom and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, who lead states where Democrats control large legislative majorities. Two can play at this game, they say, vowing to similarly eliminate GOP-held seats in their states.
Partisan reasons, ie racial reasons.
yes, but SCOTUS already said partisan gerrymandering is totally okie dokie.
isn’t that just also wrong?
No, it isn’t. Not generally at least. That’s the problem.
Bullshit. They’ll just write a strong letter.
Fuck the legal hurdles just do it. I’m so tired of the dems being fucking pussies in the face of the country failing. No more moral victories. I want actual results.
Assuming all the states Gerry mander based on what party controls them so that all of their representatives are from that party, who wins?
Land has more representative power than people.
