Banana Republic

How gerrymandering and voter suppression paved the way for abortion bans

Alabama Republicans have pursued a similar gerrymandering strategy, segregating black voters to boost conservative white Republicans.
In his successful campaign for the US Senate in 2017, Democrat Doug Jones won 50 percent of the vote but carried just one of Alabama’s seven congressional districts—a sign of just how lopsided the state’s political map has become.
That same year, a federal court ruled that 12 of Alabama’s legislative districts were illegally racially gerrymandered. The Republican State Leadership Committee—which funded the GOP’s takeover of numerous state legislatures in 2010 and then coordinated the drawing of new, gerrymandered maps—spent $1.5 million to flip Alabama red for the first time since Reconstruction.


Many more examples are given.It is the death knell of democracy. If you feel that your vote doesnt count then you pretty much stop voting.

Do people get sent to jail for these crimes ?
Suppressing votes, gerrymandering, voter ‘ID’ laws – all illustrate the GOP’s contempt for the democratic process and their desire to maintain Republican minority rule.

:lmao:

^^^^^^ Fucking retard doesn't know that the UK requires identification for citizens to vote..... :rofl:
 
I dont think it matters which form of government you adopt if you are intent on this gerrymandering thing. Its incredibly cynical.

Dem's are bussing millions of black women to abortion clinics and millions of black men to their Dem run prisons. What would you suggest we do about it?

Lol
Since when is it any your business you fat tub of shit?

I have a special place in my heart for "tub of shit"

When I was growing up, there were these 2 dudes a little bit older than us, and we called them "tub of shit #1" and "tub of shit #2" respectively. They were always at the video arcades. One had blonde hair and the other had black. These guys never even wore a shirt n shit. :auiqs.jpg:
 
Banana republic? Gerrymandering? Democrats invented gerrymandering and they behaved like a Banana Republic when they illegally engaged in a surveillance of a political opponent. We get lectured by a Brit about the benefits of abortion when the #1 name for a newborn male child in London is "Mohammed". That's right, Brits are killing their kids while the Islamic culture (that doesn't believe in abortion) is taking over.
