Mississippi wants to redistrict, now that the Supreme Court has declared that racist districts are no longer legal. But it was tied up in an appeal relating to its earlier map. No more! A unanimous panel of the Fifth Circuit vacated the district court order and sent it back.

Basic math:

Mississippi is 36-37% black.   If all 4 districts go to white Republicans, they are being screwed out of their vote and representation.
or,
Trump won Mississippi with 60% of the vote.  If all 4 districts go to Republicans, 40% of Mississippi is getting screwed out of its representation.

Repeat for every other red states trying to eliminate all Democrat districts by redistricting.

Republicans are screwing over tens of millions of Americans.  Period.   [/quote]

Oh, so do Republicans have a right to representation in New England?  What about the nearly 6 million Republicans in California who only get a small handful of seats? No, you only want black people to have this special right?  Well, that's illegal.

If Democrats want to end gerrymandering, they can start in their own back yards.
