The reason Democrats are screaming for Texas to stop redistricting is because Democrats have almost nothing left to gerrymander

They already rigged the map years ago and hate to see Republicans actually fighting back

Illinois fat-cat Governor J.B. Pritzker explained that Illinois’ gerrymandering—which got an ‘F’ for fairness—is different from Texas’ because they did it to save democracy. (X)

New York Governor Kathy Hochul defended that New York’s gerrymandering is (D)ifferent because they followed the rules (a court overturned their first effort, it was so egregious). She also explained why she plans to violate the New York Constitution to preserve democracy. (X)

That is on top of Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey threatening last week to reopen redistricting in her state to reduce the number of Republicans representing the state in Congress from 0 to -0. Massachusetts doesn’t even border a Republican district. (Hotair.com)
