[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm assuming the OP is a Virginia voter, in which case it makes much more sense for the OP to focus on VA than MD.[/quote]

I bet oP is not a Virginia voter, but someone from DC or MD who is active in the national democratic party.

This is the new push for the democrats. They cannot win on the local level outright, so they are trying to gerrymander to win.

If this was about creating sound voting districts, OP woukd be worried about fixing the crazy gerrymandering in MD and CA.[/quote]

Republicans can't win without cheating and they know it. Without gerrymandering and voter suppression they would be a regional party. In the last election Republican house candidates nationwide got less than half of the votes cast but they won 55% of the seats. Six million more Americans voted for a Democratic Senate candidate than a Republican.

Republicans know that if they ever let their foot off of the snake they're finished. If they ever lose control of the districting process their party is headed for the dustbin of history. It's the reason they've become completely unprincipled.[/quote]

Both sides love to gerrymander when they are in control.  We should have a nonpartisan process.
