Trial Dates Set for Illinois Lawsuit Over Legislative Redistricting

A 3-judge U.S. District Court will hold a trial September 27-29 in McConachie v Illinois State Board of Elections, n.d., 1:21cv-3091. This is the lawsuit over the validity of the Illinois legislative redistricting for the new decade. The Illinois legislature is the only legislature in the nation that has already drawn new legislative districts. Because the 2020 census data isn’t available yet, the legislature used other data from the American Community Survey, which is conducted by the Census Bureau but a far cry from the regular census. Two sets of plaintiffs are asking the court to rule the legislative districts invalid, and to force the legislature to do the job again once the census data is available in August.

An irony is that Illinois legislative district boundaries now may be delayed more than if the legislature had simply waited until the census data is available.

The Illinois legislature has not done any U.S. House redistricting yet.

  1. ATTENTION —

    NON-math MORONS —

    1/2 or less votes x 1/2 rigged packed/cracked gerrymander areas

    = 1/4 or less CONTROL

    = ANTI-Democracy oligarchy — with monarch gang leaders — in CONTROL of 95+ pct of law making in the USA.

    [ *SOME* DEMOCRACY IF VOTERS VOTE ON BALLOT ISSUES AND IN SMALLER POP JURIS WITH AT LARGE LEGIS BODIES IN SMALL POP CITIES / VILLAGES / TOWNSHIPS ].

    Too many brainwashed media folks to count — due to rotted to the core publik skooools, colleges, universities, teachers, profs — esp. in polisci, history, law, math.

  2. Why save democracy? Would be better to kill it. Read Hans Hoppe; Democracy: The God That Failed. READ founders. DEMOCRACY is communism. DEMOCRACY is a lynch mob. It’s two wolves and a sheep voting on dinner. It’s the worst form of government ever invented. No, not except for every other. No exceptions, worst form of government ever invented, period.

    You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.

  4. FORMS OF GOVTS – FOR NON-MORONS

    SINCE GREEKS IN 300 BC —

    UNANIMITY – 100 PCT OK — UTOPIAN/DELUSIONAL

    DEMOCRACY – MAJORITY RULE

    OLIGARCHY – MINORITY RULE – 2 TO UNDER MAJORITY

    MONARCHY – ONE [FICTIONAL- MONARCHS ALWAYS HAVE ADDED HACKS DOING THE DIRTY WORK – STALIN / HITLER ETC.]– THUS DE FACTO OLIGARCHY

    ANARCHY – NOOO GOVT — UTOPIAN/DELUSIONAL
    ———–
    THUS – DEMOCRACY VS OLIGARCHY

  5. Democracy is the worst of these. You are utopian and delusional if you see democracy the way it is advertised and not the way it actually works.

  6. NOT ***REAL*** Democracy in the USA, UK and many other Western Civilization regimes due to gerrymanders and other major ANTI-Democracy defects — Parl regimes, SOP violations, etc.

  7. Any form of democracy, real or ideal, is the worst form of government. Ideal democracy is even worse than real democracy, which is a hybrid system containing many elements of oligarchy. Ideal democracy is also as utopian and delusional as any other delusional utopian pipe dream ever thought up.

  8. Repo Dem – a major Putin / Xi troll or what ???

    Never any shortage of monarch/oligarch mindless robot stooges/hacks/puppets/apologists.

  9. No, I’m not a troll, and I speak only for myself. Who do you speak for? Regarding the second sentence, the same may be said of mob rule. A lynch mob is a perfect example of both ideal and real democracy in action.

  10. The Founders were classicists, and tried to follow the principles of Aristotle in his Politics. He said that there were three forms of government: democracy, aristocracy, and monarchy. Each by itslelf had strengths and weaknesses, but the bsst form of government combined all three, because the weaknesses of one form were checked by the strengths of the other forms.

    We see in our Constitution all three elements. Even Jefferson acknowledged that the House of Representatives was the democratic element, the President was the monarchical element, and the Senate and courts were the aristocratic element. Madison in Federalist #10 states that the separation of powers enabled each element to have checks and balances on the others to keep them from from their worst tendencies.

    The tendency over time has been to concentrate most power in our Constitution in the Presidency, in a vain attempt to “end gridlock”, i.e. override checks and balances built into our constitution. Thus, we should understand that it is the monarchical element that is getting out of control, not the democratic element.

  11. The 3 USA ANTI-Democracy gerrymander systems –

    H Reps
    Senate
    EC.

    De facto Prez monarchy due to SCOTUS (hacks appointed by Prezs) — esp so-called forn exec agreements and forn acts of WAR by Prez orders — plus all sorts of USA *national emergency* laws – social / econ / military / criminal.

    Worry less about a 6 Jan 2021 mob vs a Prez regiment of goon military killing off all of USA Congress and SCOTUS.

    See Hitler 1933-1934.
