PA supreme court announces new congressional map!

[Text Drivers are Killers]

Where do courts get the authority to do this.? This is writing a law and that's for legislators.

[Text Drivers are Killers]

The legislature doesn't have unlimited authority to draw districts however it wants. It only had authority to draw them in accordance with the constitution. When it draws districts that are in violation of the constitution, the body responsible for enforcing and interpreting the constitution had the right to address the constitutional violations.

What makes you think the courts have authority to enforce and interpret the constitution.? You are saying courts are not just the judicial branch, but now both the executive and legislative branch too . THINK

Only when they get their way.

[FUCK THE POLICE]

The courts have long held the position as final constitutional arbiter.

The republicans took gerrymandering to a level not seen in politics overturning democracy
so the judicial needed to step in and replace what was done for generations. republicans
have turned into con men willing to destroy the country to win..

SCOTUS doesn't enforce

[Cancel 2018.2]

Partisan gerrymandering violates the constitution.

What section?

[FUCK THE POLICE]

What section?

The part that says that states must maintain a republican system of governance. Gerrymandering had become so sophisticated these days that it has the potential to transform areas into essentially single party states where the will of the people is irrelevant, that is not a republic.

[FUCK THE POLICE]

That's an argument I pulled it out of my ass though and I doubt they're arguing anything like that before the Supremes.

does the new map look like this?.....

[PraiseKek]

New, fair map:



Old, gerrymandered, electoral fraud map:

Gerrymandering is not election fraud and their supreme court has no authority to draw congressional districts, this is overt judicial over reach. The DNC run PA Supreme Court just overthrew the PA Constitution and fascist pigs like you support it.

The judiciary has no authority whatsoever to draw congressional districts, that power is reserved exclusively to the legislative branch. There is nothing illegal or unconstitutional about gerrymandering and it does nothing whatsoever to overturn democracy. The DNC run PA Supreme Court just overthrew the PA Constitution.

Article 1 Section 4 - Elections, Meetings. The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Place of Chusing Senators.

Teflon Dumb at is again. Too dumb to understand the courts are where you go to resolve problems, hopefully on a legal basis. it is rectifying a condition that cheated people out of the equal power of their vote. The districts were deliberately carved up to make an advantage for the Repubs. Teflon is so bad, that you have to wonder if he is actually a Russian, paid to sow chaos and anger in America. They said the Russians were doing it again. This is how it would look. Tell Putin it will not work this time.

seems kind of weird that they shifted zones clear across the state.....for example, district 16 was over in the southeast corner, now its in the northwest......eighteen is now 14 and 14 is now 18.....its almost like the court made sure no one was an incumbent......
