  • It was also full of Democrat shenanigans that they knew the Republicans would not vote for, so they tossed in jerrymandering, knowing the bill would never pass to make it look like they were for it.

    Without jerrymandering, the Democrats would lose many seats because they’d no longer be able to take large swaths of rural and suburban areas, then make a wonky looking maps to link them to cities to ensure the suburban and rural voters get outvoted by the urban voters. They’d also no longer be able to carve out mostly black districts that they have no chance of ever losing.

    Without their jerrymandering, they wouldn’t have single party control of Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont.









  • “Democracy” is Donkeyspeak for “Our ability to hold onto power” You can replace the word “Democracy” in anything they say with “our ability to hold onto power” and it works.

    “Donald Trump is an existential threat to our ability to hold onto power!” “This bill is an attack on our ability to hold power!”

    There’s also a REASON why Democrats will flee but not file a lawsuit to stop it. If a judge decides, “Jerrymandering and drawing congressional districts based on race is illegal!” the Democratic Party collapses because of how much they’ve Jerrymandered their own states to ensure that they maintain a single party system as much as possible.




  • That is correct. Democrats Jerrymander every chance they get, then cry victim when it doesn’t work out for them. The only thing that would infuriate the Democrats more would be forcing every state to redistrict in a way that ignored racial and other groups and only focused on the number of people.

    Then, they would lose MANY more seats because they would no longer be able to district in a way that takes the groups of people that vote against them and split districts up in a way that their vote won’t change anything. Oh, right, that’s just called Jerrymandering, a tautology.
