This is why you must vote for a Republican governor. That way, even if the Democrats control the legislature and try to gerrymander the districts, you have a Republican governor to veto it.
The reason Maryland, for example, is so gerrymandered is that in 2011 it had a Democrat legislature and a Democrat governor. But the state is about to re-elect its Republican governor, so the redistricting is likely to be better than it was last time. If they try to do a gerrymander like the last time, Governor Hogan will veto it.
Exactly vote for DeSantis in Florida or the potential in Florida’s case would be if the commie Gillum was elected:
The Florida Supreme Court recently ruled that the next governor of Florida will have the opportunity to appoint three new justices to the Florida Supreme Court. Republican Party of Florida chairman Blaise Ingoglia stated: “Andrew Gillum would appoint radical, activist justices who would legislate from the bench and work to eliminate school choice, erode pro-life principles and impose big-government ideology on our state.” A far-left court could also impact Florida’s district maps.
For example, if Democrats are unhappy with how the legislature draws the lines, they will likely contest the proposed drawings and file a lawsuit. Assuming that this happens, the case could end up in the Supreme Court, at which time the Democrats will submit their proposed districts to the far left-leaning court. These districts will likely favor a shift in the balance of power to the Democrats.
If Andrew Gillum is elected governor of Florida, he will appoint far left-leaning justices who will be more inclined to favor the Democratic proposed state district maps. Gillum, a Democrat, will also have the power to veto the proposed congressional district lines. If this happens, and district lines are drawn in a manner that favors Democrats, many more Democrats will be elected in subsequent elections, and the Florida congressional delegation could turn Democrat. This sentiment is shared by some Democrats not only in Florida, but around the country.
