Not a fan Gerrymandering, but the Republicans really f’ed themselves.

Voters in Virginia approved a plan that will likely cost Republicans 4 seats in November. California did the same. Texas for the Republicans

I agree it is getting bad, politicians are picking their voters not voters picking politicians, Florida is next

But the ultimate guilt rests on the Supreme Court and their limp wrist decisions on gerrymandering, like Citizen United, additional dumb decisions leading to a mockery of elections today. Trump sought to take advantage and it backfired

The irony is that, like Trump's Iran War, Trump started this and now it's blowing up in his face. LOL

No shit, Terry. Now tell that to Trump about Iran and mid-decade gerrymandering.

So, what I am hearing here is, "What they did was wrong, so we are going to do wrong even better than they did!"

Fantastic. Love the two party system.

What is funny is that those who put the referendum on the ballot had to mislead. Look at the wording

“Should the Constitution of Virginia be amended to allow the General Assembly to temporarily adopt new congressional districts to restore fairness in the upcoming elections, while ensuring Virginia’s standard redistricting process resumes for all future redistricting after the 2030 census?”

This is what Jarod calls “fighting fire with fire”. They weren’t even honest about what they were doing. I would bet many who voted yes didn’t know what it would actually do.

This is from our so called “democracy saving” friends on the left. And they wonder why I call them marxists

Oh, and Texas has perfect wording? Texas didnt even put it up for a vote, the GOP Legislature just passed it

This is supposedly the objection raised by the GOP appealing the vote, we’ll see, but if you are going to start blaming someone you can start with Trump, he began the whole debacle

But don’t worry, Florida is next, it will balance off Virginia, hell, being Florida, they might even ban Democrats from voting

It isn't closed indefinitely. You anchor on every word because you are a child.

You said they don't have uranium, now you claim they do? Make up your mind Veruca. It is so hard to keep up with all of your lies

PS just because you want to chase every single word doesn't mean others have to play along. Honestly, my life hasn't been impacted one iota by what is going on in Iran. Has yours? Gas prices aren't any higher than they were when Biden was in office so.......

Of course not, Donnie. It's only closed until Trump pays off the Iranians.

I am glad the Virginia situation is only temporary.

That is what you are hearing, otherwise the people who do the bad things will take over. ITs a sad reality. At least in VA its temporary and the voters approved it. Voters in Calif approved it also.

Doing the bad thing to protect against that bad thing is still doing the bad thing...

The reality is: "We can do bad stuff better!" isn't a defense, it is a confession, and apparently a campaign promise now.

It should be the Left's concern. There are far more red states than blue...

If you were smarter, Terry, you'd realize it's not the states but the Electoral Votes that matter.

Trump didn't win 2024 because he had over 77M die-hard MAGAts voting for him simply because there aren't 77M die-hard MAGAts. There's only about 45M Republicans and many of them are very unhappy with the Dementia Don's handling of the economy and his war in Iran.

Over 60M of the 155M voters in 2024 are Independents and they are very unhappy with your Orange Jesus.

Obviously the 45M Democrats don't like him either. :rofl2:
