Silly Republicans. Only democrats are allowed to gerrymander.

Yep. As in the case of Rep Sheila Jackson Lee (Rat-TX)

Ain't that the truth. I live in AZ 1 which is about 100 yards wide and 300 miles long and shaped like a sidewinder. My rep, Kirkpatrick is more than a tank of gas away.

We can thank Justice Kennefy for the confusion over gerrymandering.
There was a Texas case a few years back where TX largely won (5-4, but with Kennedy only concurring) but Kennedy wrote an inexcusable concurring opinion which required TX to redraw one district.
The four on the right said gerrymandering is political and allowed, and the four lefties want their hands in it “to make sure it’s fair”.
Kennedy meanwhile is so in love with himself that his opinion on the matter appears to be the controlling one.
