[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NYT The Daily podcast had an episode on Democratic gerrymandering yesterday: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/31/podcasts/the-daily/midterms-elections-redistricting.html I fundamentally disagree with their argument that gerrymandering on both sides is okay because representation balances out on the national level. I think that disenfranchising local communities, even if partisanship is represented accurately at the national level is still undemocratic. [/quote] I agree with you. And it actually leads to more extremists on both sides. [/quote] As they said, the Supreme Court had a chance to get rid of this chose not to, and Congress can’t pass a law against it because the Republicans are opposed. This is actually a pretty good outcome to have so many Democratic wins that the field will be pretty close to fair - as they said as fair as it has been in the last 50 years.[/quote]
