An Amazing Number of States Have Lawsuits Pending Over Redistricting — 16 Comments

  1. ANY MENTION OF G MATH EQUATION 00001 ???

    1/2 OR LESS VOTES X 1/2 RIGGED CRACKED/PACKED GERRYMANDER AREAS = 1/4 OR LESS CONTROL.

    PR IN ALL REGIMES.

  2. Any state that doesn’t complete redistricting in time to allow candidates to get on the ballot should be required to elected their delegation at-large.

  3. The lawsuit in New Mexico is DOA. The Republican Party filed it but the courts in NM are nearly totally packed with either elected Democrats or appointed Democrats. The legislature has Democratic super majorities in each house. All statewide elected constitutional offices are held by Democrats. The entire congressional delegation are Democrats. This lawsuit has zero chance of success.

  4. We all know why this is in the news. The overarching question is:
    Why do more people want to win than want out?

  5. WIN = GET BRIBES $$$ FROM SPECIAL INTEREST LOOTER GANGS – DUE TO POWER JOBS IN STATIST CONTROL FREAK REGIMES.

  6. “Why do more people want to win than want out?”

    If we adopted the Wyoming Rule, there would be about 120+ new members of the House.

    Definitely room for more winners. A “win-win”, literally.

  7. Do other democracies with first past the post face this much partisan lawsuits and gerrymandering?

  8. Redistricting is a waste of time. The winning party should draw the districts, or choose to have none. Keep voting simple: one night a year, a gathering of elite White Men picks the winning party which rules for the next year. Their wives, children and servants stay home. The winning party picks the law enforcement officers, who serve as judge, jury and executioner. They would be paid by collecting a poll tax. All other taxes would be done away with.
