7 thoughts on “Indiana Democrats prep for voter redistricting battle

  1. Why are people wasting energy on this? It’s a done deal. Dear Leader commands it, and Dear Leader must be given what he wants.

    If Democrats want to counteract it, run candidates with platforms that people will vote for.

  2. As much as they scream at the sky and cry at Nate’s water cooler, I haven’t heard a single dim whine about the gerrymandered states of Massachusetts, Illinois and California. Huh.

    1. No one’s supposed to say anything about that. It’s okay when the blue leaning states do it but we can’t have the red leaning states do it.

    2. I recall which party tried to pass a bill outlawing gerrymandering and which party blocked it from advancing.

    3. Your bad faith “whataboutism” is noted and has been thrown in the trash.

      Let’s look at the voting and court records for anti-gerrymandering laws and efforts.

      Oops, turns out Republicans have been fighting tooth-and-nail to preserve partisan gerrymandering and only four D-states don’t have anti-gerrymandering or independent districting legislation.

      Go sit down.
