CNN data guru sounds alarm on midterms 'nightmare'
Daily Beast vis MSN ^ | May 11, 2026 | Cameron Adams

CNN’s data guru Harry Enten is warning of a potential gerrymandering “nightmare” for Democrats at November’s midterm elections.

Enten appeared on CNN on Sunday to discuss the impact a redistricting battle playing out across the country could have on national election results.

Last week, the Virginia Supreme Court struck down a voter-approved Democratic congressional redistricting plan. The court ruled 4-3 that the state’s Democratic-led legislature violated procedural requirements by placing the amendment on the ballot to authorize mid-decade redistricting.

We're doing better than before, but it's still going to take a big effort.

I’m glad that the VA gerrymander was shut down, but the gerrymandering wars are a race to the bottom regardless. If the only way to you can win elections is by redrawing Congressional maps to look like surreal jigsaw puzzle pieces, there’s a real messaging problem.

Trump rallies the GOP to stand up and play to win, rather than politely go along with decades of the Dem’s using every trick in the book to tilt the congressional maps in their favor. The cries of “gerrymander” directed at the GOP are to convince enough wimpy Rinos to continue going along with the Dem schemes. Setting reasonable and fair district lines offends no one except the cheaters.

Trump has to end this Iran war very soon in order for prices to drop.

Democrats / leftists have been overrepresented in government because of:

1. Using a Census that counts non-citizens and therefore results in more Congressional seats in districts that are ‘sanctuaries’ for illegals (one of the big reasons Democrats support sanctuary cities).

2. Ridiculous gerrymandering that has created Democrat districts where they don't exist.

3. Systematic vote fraud, at many levels, including with complicit Secretaries of State who were elected by Soros money, electronic vote fraud, expanded difficult to monitor mail-in-voting, opposing a requirement for ID to allow voting, etc.

There's a lot more to this, but the above are big contributors.

This is CNN putting out the call to arms: Fire up the election fraud and hit pieces on Repulicans. And calling for Lindsey G to call for legislation to federally ban abortions like he did before.

Wouldn’t it be better if Iran ended the war instead?

The only way the Iran war “Ends” is if he caves to Iran and gives them EVERYTHING they want and he’s NOT going to do that

Yes, gerrymanders drawn on racial lines to benefit specific groups, such as the black-dominated district around Memphis, are illegal and need to be redrawn.

He needs to escalate and get things rolling. Then Iran will want it stopped.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>..
He could end that war by tomorrow evening if he chose to do that, but he’s holding off in hopes of finding a way to do so that will not cause the deaths of perhaps thousands of Iranian civilians and of our own troops. If he and Bibi can successfully target the remainder of the IRGC that war will end within hours.
