Gerrymandering vs Open Borders

[Independent thinker]

The left complain about Republican gerrymandering, calling it cheating. But, how is that really any different than letting a bunch of illegals cross the border and then counting them as representation toward Congressional seats in the House? Isn't that cheating also? Both ways try to gain advantage in the US House and yet if illegals also vote in elections that's even cheating on top of cheating. So, Democrats would be double cheaters.

The State of Illinois is very familiar with gerrymandering... thanks to the Chicago Democratic Party Machine.

The Democratic Party of the State of Illinois and its close-in suburbs (a.k.a. Cook County).

And, of course, the Chicago Democratic Machine rules the State Capitol of Springfield, Illinois, as well.

There is actually a move afoot amongst some 30+ Illinois counties to secede from Illinois and join the State of Indiana.

And the State of Indiana legislature has even good-naturedly enacted a bill to allow that annexation from the Indiana side.

Given the Democratic Machine's iron grip on the State Capitol that secession initiative hasn't got a snowball's chance in Hell.

Heck... just look at the shape of the Congressional District that spans both East St. Louis and Springfield, Illinois.

If you ever needed proof that Democrats routinely and recently engaged in gerrymandering one need look no further...

Designed to ensure Democratic Party control of the State of Illinois...

Heck... the last time that the Republicans had control of City Hall in Chicago?

Early 1933... when lame-duck GOP Mayor Big Bill Thompson made way for incoming Mayor Anton Cermak after the 1932 elections...

That's ninety-two (92) years-plus-change of Democratic Party control of the City of Chicago...

And we all know what a stellar job that the Democrats have done with the City of Chicago, don't we?

From regional commercial superpower to overtaxed Urban Plantation and Barrio... a rotting shell of its former glory...

Of course... Congressional districting and occasional Democratic Party gerrymandering have nothing to do with any of that...

------------

As a related "aside"... one of these days we're going to wise-up and stop counting Illegal Aliens in the US Census.

Even if we have to deal with that prospect on the Constitutional level... by Amendment or by favorable Re-Interpretation by SCOTUS.

The Dem politicians have repeatedly admitted they need illegals in their districts to get more seats in Congress.

The open border was about changing the electorate.

Illinois is a mostly red state but for Chicago. Interesting though that Texas democrat lawmakers have fled to


Illinois.

The Democrat Voters actually believe that the Democrat Party does not gerrymander.

the funny thing is the Dems are threatening to fight back by gerrymandering blue states .. but the truth is they've already gerrymandered blue states to the max ! there are blue states that have a 40% republican vote that have no representation in Congress ..

Why do you keep repeating this lie.....like some brainwashed total Nazi???

15 states get a grade of D or F when it comes to gerrymandering. 11 of these 15 states are run by Republican governments.

CA and NY both get good grades...which means they are not gerrymandered states right now. If CA and NY do gerrymander their states during the next 12 months, then Republicans will easily lose next year.

And??? What's your point???

MA is a small state. Most of those districts are probably near Boston.

It's cheating AND treason AND blatantly unlawful.

Democrat ASSHOLES flat out ignored U.S. immigration law and architected a mass INVASION of 15 million illegals who RAPED and MURDERED Americans.

The Dem's army of illegals are KILLING 40,000 Americans each year with illegal trafficked illegal drugs. Mexico and Canada MF'ers are making money off that.

Hell Republican gerrymandering is down right patriotic to prevent Dem traitors from killing us.
