I hold each troubling. Democrats had free hands for eons to screw Republicans. But heaven forbid Republicans draw seats for themselves. Florida is especially egregious since they have a so-called “Fair Districts” state law which should be tossed out for interfering with the right of the GOP majority to draw the lines. It’s cost the GOP several seats as a result.
Even worse are the so-called “non-partisan” panels to draw seats in some states, such as in CA and AZ, both of which have drawn heavily Democrat majority seats. AZ should have a 7R-2D delegation and barely clings to a 5R-4D one.
Absolutely — I was going to mention Arizona. I recall Jan Brewer suing to keep the Democrats from taking over the “non-partisan” redistricting process and screwing the Republican majority in the state.
Naturally a partisan liberal judge stopped her from keeping the non-partisan commission truly non-partisan (”let that sink in”, as the punkies say nowadays).
And the Republicans sit on their hands and willingly get screwed in places like Maryland, Illinois, Washington, Oregon, California, New York and everything east of the Hudson (though not much would matter there, probably).
Since 2011 liberal judges have **mandated** partisan Democrat outcomes in Florida and Virginia though at least in 2016 their plan didn’t change anything in North Carolina, but R’s lost seats in FL and VA — as intended.
