Court Rules That North Carolina Districts Are "Racially Gerrymandered" and Unconstitutional

[Penelope]

N. Carolina went ahead with the election anyway knowing it was rigged racially. The Pubs were working behind the scenes, the wrong person won the election, and we should re vote. We live in
a crooked time. The only way the Pubs could win was by cheating. They were at it in my state of Mi
as well , and you seen my post on WI. Clinton should automatically become Pres. elect.

Court Rules That North Carolina Districts Are "Racially Gerrymandered" and Unconstitutional

But voters will still cast ballots in these illegal districts in November.

The case, Covington v. the State of North Carolina, centers on whether state Republicans relied too heavily on race when they redrew the legislative districts in 2011. Thursday's opinion, written by Judge James A. Wynn Jr., found that "race was the predominant criterion in drawing all of the challenged districts." That alone doesn't make a congressional district unconstitutional, but Wynn wrote that the state did "not [show] that their use of race to draw any of these districts was narrowly tailored to further a compelling state interest."

The ruling comes less than a week after Common Cause, a public advocacy group, sued the state over alleged racially gerrymandered congressional districts. It comes less than two weeks after a separate trio of federal judges struck down a host of North Carolina voting restrictions, including voter ID requirements, cuts to early voting, and the banning of same-day voter registration. North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory, a Republican, said he was going to appeal that ruling, but that hasn't happened yet. A separate case, McCrory v. Harris, is also challenging the state's congressional districts.

It shouldn't have gotten to a racially divided situation, as it has.

Psst .... you're wrong.

The suit did, in fact, happen. It is being appealed.

HOWEVER - the outcome of the suit has nothing to do with presidential politics. Gerrymandering is an intrastate activity. It determines districts and MAY have an impact on state races.

BUT - because North Carolina is a winner-take-all state for presidential elections, district distribution is irrelevant. Reporting is done by district, but the totals are wrapped up into a single number.

Once again --- a lot of noise about nothing.

Just throw shit at the wall and see what sticks, huh?

The point is simple ....

Any questionable gerrymandering is a state issue. It does not have any effect on the national election. Therefore, all this pissing and moaning by liberals about how Hillary got screwed is simply false.

The same applies for Wisconsin.

How, exactly did it throw the election?

That sounds great, only one problem. Most minorities favor a particular party, and Gerrymandering is done to concentrate people of a certain political persuasion. The fact that a particular neighborhood is predominately a certain race has no bearing.

Nice try, Penelope, but no cigar..

Penelope, I can't figure out how many times, in how many ways, that you've been told that Gerrymandering plays absolutely NO role in Presidential elections. I will try and inform you once again. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS ARE DETERMINED BY THE POPULAR VOTE IN EACH AND EVERY STATE. THAT VOTE THEN DETERMINES THE WINNER OF EACH STATE SEPARATELY. EACH SEPARATE STATE THEN USES THAT VOTE TO DECIDE WHAT ELECTORs TO SUBMIT TO THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE.

GERRYMANDERING HAS ABSOLUTELY NO BEARING DURING A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION!!!!!!!!

Remember, "He who knows not and knows not he knows not is a fool, shun him. He who knows not and knows he knows not is a child, teach him. He who knows and knows he knows is wise, follow him." - Ancient Arab Proverb

Well Trump himself said if he was going for the maj. vote he would of done things differently. How might I ask?
Of course it does, and Trump's Team went for the EC vote, not the popular vote. 2 Dems have lost since 2000, who got the Pop vote and lost the EC. The EC has got to go.
