Barry and Eric both crawled out from under their rocks for this.

Must be "series."

Who says the Texans are gerrymandering?

Has anyone seen maps of the old and new districts? A true gerrymander should be easy to spot.

They know they’re safe and just a matter of time before they’re back in power.

For instance, this gerrymander ......which was Texas 30th District from 1991 to 1996 when the Texans had to go all the way to the Supreme Court to get it thrown out.

Look at any facts in this debate. Those who made a comment about gerrymandering said the Dems were fair, and the Repubs were not The facts are if you look at the states controlled by Dems, only Michigan is fair and split down the middle. Massachusetts? 9 House Reps for the Dems, 0 for Republicans. Trump got 36 % of the vote. NY? Trump got 43.3 % of the vote, and have 27 % of the House Reps. CA? Trump got 38.3% of the vote, but only 26.4 of House Members. And Illinois, where most of the Dems fled to from Texas? Trump got 43.9 % of the vote, but Republicans only 17.6 % of member for the House of Representatives. It looks like the Dems have perfected gerrymandering in MA, and want more from the rest of the states they manage.

Hochul an the Dems took 3 seats from the GOP before 2024 by doing what Abbot is doing right now. But does anyone even mention it.

He’s wrong. It’s the Congress elected in 2028, that gets seated in January 2029, which will certify the 2028 presidential election. ‘Ef him.

Former Attorney General Eric Holder warned that if Texas Republicans succeed at gerrymandering the state's congressional districts, it could impact the legitimacy of the certification of the next presidential election.

Newsflash: Former Attorney General Eric Holder confirms Democrats impacted the legitimacy of the certification of past presidential elections with their own gerrymandering accomplishments.

Hung with his own rope.

How come it isn’t “playing with fire” when the DemonRATs do it? Take off Holder. You haven’t a clue.

Holder’s mission since leaving the White Hut has been to gerrymander for the democrats. In one shot the GOP in Texas is about to undo everything he has done. He is one of the biggest POS on this and has Gerrymandering stink on his hands.

The fact that Obama and Holder crawled out from under a rock to protest this shows that the Dems were trying to insulate themselves from the consequences of their massive unpopularity. They honestly thought they would win the House by default and stymie Trump,

Whomp whomp.
