Democratic consultants crafted maps, funding redistricting lawsuit
I wish they’d leak some email about how Barack the Kenyan sent his commie pig operators to Arizona to gerrymander the districts in our state to get more Mexicans elected. Somebody should be in jail including the so called judges who let this atrocity stand.
The attack on the GOP begins before they shutdown the government and defund his majesty’s amnesty. Expect something new every day now.
I thought that minorities were packed into the same district to create a minority victory “set aside” seat.
When Chris Bell (D-TX) lost his House seat in the first election after redistricting, he lost it to a black Democrat.
Chris Bell’s resulting action as a lame duck Rep. was to file a spurious ‘ethics’ charge against Tom DeLay (resulting in Rep. DeLay stepping down while tainted by a long delayed trial).
I believe Chris Bell is a racist liberal because he was so angry about losing his seat to a black man. He can’t be angry about losing it to a Republican because THAT DID NOT HAPPEN.
But this story is based on leaked emails. Oooooh.
Uh...... I think this is S.O.P. for Re-Distritcting in in every single state. The Party in power, in the State Legislatures, carves out the Congressional Districts. So, m I missing something here?
California decided to do away with this evil, partisan gerrymandering and go with an independent, nonpartisan redistricting commission who would act in the best interests of all the people to provide compact districts that would incorporate a region of similar interests, shared concerns, and a common sense of purpose. It was going to be wonderful and the naive Republicans went along. The Democrats packed the commission with party hacks and they controlled the redistricting process. Guess how that turned out.
Yeah, to get rid of Allen West.
So what? Same thing would have happened in reverse if dims were redistricting
This is much to do about nothing and is simply misinformation for the aggrievance industry.
The real problem is how to mathematically craft a majority-minority district in Central and North Florida.
Simply put, the target minority’s are geographically dispersed in this part of the state into small islands so the map makers had to cobble together districts like Corrine Browns 5th District that links every black minority area from Jacksonville to West Orlando to just barely get a majority minority.
As for Corrine, what is up with these democratic candidates? Upon meeting her you would quickly come to the conclusion she has either a) a room temperature IQ or b) has suffered a series of strokes.
My suspicion is she has to be a front for the real power broker.
The Court says a "minority majority" district is 50 percent plus one. That means you have to go looking for them, you have to find them contiguously, as well. Either way the process requires the exchange of knowledge inherently racist, in my opinion, but that's the law.
And the right of the legislature to decide it's district lines after a census is pretty well established.
This is all just poisoning the jury pool, in hope the court will change its mind, again, by the time the case makes its way to the Supremes, or the that the Court changes.
The Democrats can count on the ignorance of the press. I've yet to read a single article about redistricting that was not, in some way, incorrect in some way. You can always count on the press to be ignorant or lazy.
No word from Cook county.
“alleging lawmakers drew congressional maps to favor Republicans”
Works for me. :-)
This is how redistricting works. Nothing new. Just look at Oregon, where conservatives have been redistricted to oblivion.
