Welp. Fire with fire. Gerrymander the hell out of every state we control

[Recursion]

I wish this weren't the way, but we didn't choose this. Now that SCOTUS has ruled partisan gerrymandering is not unconstitutional, we don't really have a choice. After the next redistricting there need to be zero Republican Representatives from any state where we control the legislature and the governor's mansion. None. Fire with fire.

1. We're gradually splitting into two countries.

Gets in the pot.

9. Sure feels like it.

Makes me wonder if our country is simply too big to co-exist.

2. Yep. Winning Governorships just became even more important.

3. ENOUGH! No more "let's be gentlemanly".. "don't be divisive"...

To all the members of Congress that want just wait out tRump* and return to the good ol' days: RESIGN.

And I heartily agree: We need to gerrymander the shit out of every state we possibly can and do everything we can to make sure the republicans never have access to government again.

4. I agree

5. I gathered this is for fed judiciary, does this mean the state judiciary will hear these cases?

11. That's how PA managed to get equitable districts

6. We have to have both the House and Senate in 2023 to pull that off.

As that's when the next apportionment happens.

7. I believe that the proposal here is

for our "Blue" states to do this gerrymandering. It is important for those states to have Democrats in control of their states houses and governorships.

8. I am in the Maryland district gerrymandered by Democrats.

District 6, where Republican and rural western Maryland acquired an eastern high-population section of Democrats.

first congressman? John Delaney, who was in the debate last night. His ambition was greater than this office, and he resigned in January to run for president.

10. Better: pass ballot initiatives

that set up nonpartisan commissions to establish districts, like CA did.

[Cicada]

12. Think about the future. Gerrymandering should be opposed.

We might get fairness today by gerrymandering dem states but the USA will be around after we have all died. In the long run gerrymandering obviously leads to bad results. Young people will soon overwhelm older voters almost everywhere. Be patient. Help is on the way. We can add DC and Puerto Rico as states in the intermediate term.

13. NO! When they go low, we go hi... we can't stoop to thelr lev.... FUCK IT! You're RIGHT!
