Yes, but we get mileage out of the distilled version and her one vote and her mouth that raises GOP money by the truckload.
Far more dangerous is a Kyrsten Sinema type who presents well, and know when to break ranks and keep her mouth shut.

June 13, which is when candidates file to run, is likely when maps have to be in place.

I think that’s a good point, and I think it’s fairly obvious
that border districts would be affected.
Yes, Liberal judges are a very corrosive thing on this
nation.

There is no problem with the district. It goes from from something like 26% to 23% black. Hopefully this gets shut down quickly.

The district that is a “problem” is in the Panhandle which ordinarily glows deep red but this year it will glow so red that satellites will be able to make it out. Let them tinker with the boundary lines and think they have a big victory.

The only problem with the district is that it is long and narrow, spanning from Tallahassee to Jacksonville. Districts should be compact so that the people being represented share common issues.
It's hard to imagine that the people of Tallahassee (western panhandle, state government workers) have the same issues as the people of Jacksonville (Atlantic coastal, seaport, densest Florida city).

Sounds like you’re right.
No, that’s not a major screw-up at all.

Moonbat leftist local judge with ZERO standing. Sadly, most state capitals are located in moonbat counties (FL being one with Tallahassee’s Leon County) and they are infested with local ultraleftist judges that think they are empowered to stop or overrule Conservative Governors and legislatures. Judges like these need to not only be reigned in, but swiftly impeached for what is effectively treasonous and subversive actions.

Judge Smith has made his ruling.
Let him enforce it.
This is what DeSantis should say.

The Judge in this was appointed by Governor DeSantis.

Can’t let the Republicans stop the Dhimmicraps’ gerrymander advantage. That would be unconstitutional.

Please show me where the Constitution says there must be black districts.

The assumption is that black people are being deprived of rights unless they can vote for a black candidate who is a shoo-in to win. Since no district is 100% people of one race, that means the voters in that district who are not black have no right to a representative who might be attentive to their needs (since he will only care about “his people”). At least that seems to be the reasoning.
To: Republicans 2016 2020
Tell the idiot judge to start his own state where he can doodle districts to his heart’s content.
