Barry sent one of his goon squads to Arizona to “redistrict” our state because we’re all “rasis” here. After all the gerrymandering was complete and one of his judges prevented Arizonans from stopping it, we ended up with a bunch of his ‘RAT goons representing Arizonans in Congress. What a load. Polticians! They all should be in jail.

Unfortunately, the people of Arizona voted to allow for a Commission, consisting of 2 Democrats, 2 Republicans and 1 ‘Independent’ to create the Districts. And sadly, the one who was appointed as the ‘Independent’ lied (of course, she was a Democrat). So, the 3 Democrats got together behind closed doors, illegally of course as they were only supposed to meet as a complete committee and always in open meetings. They gerrymandered the Districts to favor Democrats in a state with a Republican Governor, a Republican States Attorney, a Republican Secretary of State and 2 Republican Senators. We got 5 Dem Representatives and 4 Republican Representatives after the redistricting. In a Red state. Gov Brewer sued to change the redistricting and the judge on the case ruled against her. Right now we have 5 Republican Representatives, and 4 Dems (not to mention the Congress’ first openly and proudly bisexual Representative, Kirsten Sinema, who was elected in a newly gerrymandered District that had previously been a safe Republican District).......the ‘Committee to redistrict’ should be abandoned completely. Leave it to the State legislature!
