Texas Democrats flee the state to Illinois.

/—-/ That’s ridiculous. The constitution clearly states the president’s term is four year term, not new elections within four years. GEEEZE, are you really this thick?

That one is a special kind of stupid.

Texas Republicans are fascist. Unfortunately the Feds are compromised by the Cheater-in-Chief.

It's different when Democrats are doing the gerrymandering, right ? You loons are the worst sort of hypocrites.

How Democrat gerrymandering has made it nearly impossible for Republicans to make even bigger gains in the House

 

[berg80]

You have no respect for anyone that does not march to the democrat drumbeat. Since I do not and I really have no respect for anyone who marches to either parties drumbeat we have a mutual disrespect.

IOW, the Brennan Center's facts remain unchallenged. Reducing your assertion to horseshit.

It is no surprise that the effects of gerrymandering tilt in favor of the GOP. This decade, as last, Republicans disproportionately controlled the redistricting process, drawing 191 (or 44 percent) of the districts that will be used in this year’s elections. By contrast, Democrats fully controlled the drawing of only 75 districts. The rest were drawn by commissions, courts, or divided governments.

The Brennan center is a joke.

Why do they not even mention Massachusetts? ZERO Republicans in Congress, and yet 36% of the state voted for Trump.

Your shit source isn’t concerned with Illinois for some reason.

What could it be?

Why not leave it all to a computer algorithm that just takes into account population and a requirement for compact districts? I’d be in favor of that. It’s not like Republicans are innocent, take Alabama.

But, a bit of advice would be that relying on partisan sites like Raw Story aren’t going to serve you well, unless you only want confirmation bias….

WTF?

Why aren’t you pushing for an algorithmic solution. All I see are apologetics for the status quo.

Democrat strategists admit Dems have no "moral authority" on this issue:

Democratic strategist says party lacks 'moral authority' on Texas redistricting fight

Texas redistricting battle intensifies as Republicans push for five new seats and California considers emergency measures to counteract Republican gains.

www.foxnews.com

However, Democratic strategist Julian Epstein told "Fox News Live" on Saturday that his party is not immune from criticism, as many blue states have already gerrymandered in a way that limits Republican congressional representation.

"No, I think they don’t have the moral authority, and there’s a lot of pearl-clutching going on," he said.

Several blue states, including Massachusetts, Connecticut and New Mexico, have no Republicans in their House delegations. And many feature oddly-drawn districts, seemingly crafted to limit GOP representation.

Here is the Massechusetts congressional map:

This New Mexico's evolution of Congressional districts as determined by the Democrats in that state:

They managed to gerrymander away the one district that had been consistently GOP. aparently, the trick was to curve the district to the left and fold in the right part of the district to the upper blue district.

I guess that sucks for Republicans voters.

But . . . no one can stop them. The USSC ruled that courts have no jurisdiction over politically motivated drawing of district lines.

Republicans in those states need to either get out the vote, or lobby for Congress to ban gerrymandering.

Were you all over the CIA when they were spying on the senate? How many times did you claim they were not doing it because they would never spy on American citizens?

So you couldn't think of a single reason for the FBI to be hunting American citizens on US soil despite no federal crime, no warrants, and no crime.

And have defaulted to whataboutry.

What law does it violate, specifically?

And if its a criminal violation, why has Texas only issued civil warrants?

There's clearly something you're missing here.
