Democrats Unveil Map Targeting California GOP House Members
Top Democrats released a draft congressional map Friday that may lead to Republicans losing five US House seats as Gov. Gavin Newsom pushes to offset possible GOP gains from redistricting in Texas.
Good, gerrymander the FUCK out of CA
I heard Arnold is against this. Same he didnt have the same response when texas was doing it.
He is a "good republican". He dislikes trump because he lost influence but has no real problem with trump's america.
See also romney and the mccains.
Arnie definitely has a personal problem with things like Trump's climate policy, his anti-immigrant policy and some other stuff. He has no problem with gerrymandering to favour the GOP though apparently, and still won't go on record against the GOP - only against Trump personally.
Which plan will they use? They could go 100% of districts being blue according to this:
It really sucks because RCV and proportional representation (using super districts) would solve so many problems—especially lesser of two evils voting. But is it better at this point to have as little MAGA representation as possible?
They need to do the #2 Compact method. Then once there is a clear trifecta majority, they need to make a national law to eliminate gerrymandering nationwide. Take the power and then give it up, just like George Washington. That's the American way.
This is bad for everybody, but it would be worse to not do it. The G(rand)O(ld)P(edophiles) are destroying the country for no reason.
I wish more states would do this and stop trying to play nice against people who aren't playing by the rules.
do it just like the national popular vote interstate compact: a bunch of states get together and say that they will gerrymander to offset or exceed differences in other states where outcomes differ from the proportional vote of the electorate
if enough states jump onboard that’d nullify the point of gerrymandering
solving the game theory of the problem is the way to go imo
you can even word it so that it doesn’t mention either party… in fact, you should because the point is not to have democrats win; it’s to stop gerrymandering
Republican voters: “but you’re disenfranchising us!”
I wish the abbreviation 'GOP' would stop being used as they aren't grand in any sense of the word.
Gang Of Paedos.
GOP = Gaslight Obstruct Project.

They're also the younger of the two parties
Good fuck Nazis they’re not welcome here. We need to stop paying federal taxes too.
Oh I'm in favor of California paying its fair percentage of net revenue, AFTER we've deducted all the expenses of replacing the clawed-back funds for necessary services. And the traditional "asshole customer surcharge." Should leave about $3.50
Yeaaah, that map doesn't even look as fuckity as most red states but it's pretty clear to a CA native what they're doing to Bakersfield and Fresno areas. That northern district eating a bit into SF Bay area looks a little odd but I wouldn't have been surprised if that's how it's always been, lol.
Edit note: that one former gop speaker, what's-his-face comes from that Bakersfield area that's getting cut up.
The Supreme Court will block this.
That would probably be the best strategy, gerrymander the fuck out of a bunch of blue states, and have SCOTUS declare gerrymandering illegal
They'll find a way to make it only apply when it's against Republican interests.
That’s the point. They’re trying to get the Republicans to back down.
On what grounds?
According to the Constitution, maps will be drawn by the states. There is no national law against gerrymandering. The voting rights act only ensures that there are opportunity districts for minorities.
The only laws these maps violate are state laws and that will be alleviated by putting the action to a vote.
On what grounds?
That it is bad for Republicans.
