      It’s only cheating if the judges you appointed and/or bribed say it is.

      If redrawn by an impartial 3rd party, then, hey, go for it.

      But obviously that’s not what’s happening, or going to happen.

      Ohio has actually been required to redraw maps for 8 years now. After the 2016 election, it was found that our maps were too heavily biased by the OH Supreme Court, and they ordered a committee to redraw it. The committee is, of course, practically only staffed by GOPers, and they so far have submitted 8 maps that I know of. At least two of them were literally the same as the map that was found illegal, and the rest of them were found to not meet criteria either. They’ve been held in contempt multiple times but DeWine and friends seem not to really want to do anything about that.

          Tried last year. Independent commission to redraw districts but they fucked the language and our Republican led supreme court allowed it. Thus confusing everyone into not voting for it. And then they bragged about it.

          Still- the people in this state are too dumb to ever do anything about it.

    This ONLY Works because Republicans ALWAYS vote in Their Best Interests and NEVER EVER EVER for the Person LITERALLY CAMPAIGNING ON RUINING THEIR LIVES!

    There will never be another meaningful election in the United States, ever again. It will be like Russia, the Correct Party always wins.

    Why don’t you recount now that you’ve kicked out or scared off a bunch of the immigrants who made those numbers work for you, Texas?
