....stalling tactics and tricky legal maneuvers

So? That's the leftist Democrats' stock and trade. Screw them.

It is just So admirable that the Dims NEVER HAVE GAMED THE SYSTEM.

And thanks to MSM we all know how grateful we should be for letting us know.

Good! Democrats have gerrymandered without restraint in California, Illinois, New York and several other states where they can. Republicans need to do the same whenever and wherever possible. If anything, Republicans have been far too soft and have not gerrymandered anywhere near hard enough this cycle.

Well, if it gets her to be defeated in November, I’d say it’s worth it. The Dems are gerrymandering left and right and blue state courts have overwhelmingly let them do it - Republicans have to take their Ws where they can.

Letting the clock run out so that the districts can be used in 2022 is a smart, albeit late strategy change. I wish Rs had done that in NC and elsewhere

Exactly.

Republicans in some states should’ve anticipated the lawfare and done what OH (is now) doing and run out the clock to stop activist judges from overturning. Kavanaugh & co over at SCOTUS have basically set the precedent of the Purcell principle of not ordering a redraw when the voting periods are beginning.

NC et al should’ve probably waited to pass a map until the last minute like the Dims in NY did
