I am trying to figure out why REDISTRICTING is good in California and Virginia, but bad in Florida and Texas.

[postman]

3 million Trump voters in New England.

Zero representation in Congress.

Just facts

What you leave out is that Trump will punish the "blue" states, and all the Trump voters that live there as well.

Gerrymandering is like arsenic. We can survive it in small doses, spread out over time.

as long as each dosage favors Democrats -

 

[Billiejeens]

Gerrymandering is out of control and an actual issue

as of when?

Hey Retarded Communist!

do you know way Texas did the redistricting?

(spoiler alert, the prediction markets are unanimous that this retard has no phucking clue)

Texas did it because the state is run by fascists.

 

[Moonglow]

Southern Republicans press ahead with election-year redistricting of US House despite protests

Republicans are rapidly pursuing redistricting efforts across the South following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that affects majority-Black congressional districts.

It looks like the Dems lost the chess match.

24 seat swing in Congress? +12 Red, -12 Blue.

Ouch

If you have the people's consensus, but things change over time, and they are not the same.

Texas did it because the state is run by fascists.

Dickhead fascists.

Texas did it because the state is run by fascists.

I love the accuracy of the prediction markets.

No they’re not. They are doing for party power.

Just like Texas.

WW

A legal way to do it, then there is the democrats way.
They just aren't that smart to do it right, WW.
Don't snake a district 240 miles to obtain a democrat
district.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Suppression?! Is that what you call democracy?

It's what we call gerrymandering.

Suck on it.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Texas and Trump did it mid-decade just to steal another election.

New England stole it.

Texas just got it back.

Now, we are going to use a page out of your playbook.

As if you knew what a fascist was before your ilk
redefined the word.

Just facts

In theory, the candidates elected will represent all of their constituents. Not just their voters. Not just their party. But we've really lost that pillar. Now it's all about scoring points for your side in the gd "culture war".

Texas did it because the state is run by fascists.

Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island.

All, in the northeast without a republican representative.
Now go pound sand, Con.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Don’t change the subject just because you’re losing an argument.

That is the argument.

And you are the one who is losing it.

Virginia is a fail. You and your left-wing losers are law-breakers and crybabies.

You are going to fail in VA and Kleenex is stocking up so you guys won't run out when FL, TN, and other states start rolling in.

Once we kill your NPV initiative in the courts, this country might start to look like it once did.

Which is the major point.

The federal government is way way way to big and involved in way way way to much.

In reality, they are supposed to do the work of the federal government (which should be a whole lot less than it is in size). They represent the interests of their people with regards to the objectives of the government.

They are not there to gain advantage for their constitutents (especially in economic terms) by negotiating things to bring home pork.

To paraphrase…

The SCOTUS said restricting for political power is fine.

WW

 

[StrongAF_2026]

And Trump voters will kill to make sure the dead vote fer Trump.

and how will they do that ? or are you just saying something silly with nothing to back it up ?

That's you paraphrasing....right?

 

[Billiejeens]

I can't be the only one who understands that Texas was forced to redraw the maps under court order.

President Trump looking for more seats had nothing to do with it.

Should President Trump have gotten involved -
He didn't, he did talk about it, which is the same for the loons.
