9 thoughts on “Will Indiana’s redistricting battle create lasting Statehouse fallout?

  1. So is Liz Brown actually that red pilled for Trump, or is she just trying to get re-elected since Rokita wants to get her primaried for being “soft” on immigration?

    1. I was watching the live feed…she gave an absolutely unhinged MAGA speech. Since she’s on the record, I’d say the first.

  2. If the Governor, and especially the Lt. Governor, continue to wage a Trump-level Campaign of Retribution to punish those Republicans in the Statehouse who deigned to vote the wishes of their contituents, standing up to the pressure from Washington, the threats and smears – not to mention the dollars – of outside influencers – then it will be a long and non-productive session. I believe that Indiana Senate President Pro Tem Bray along with Indiana House of Representatives Speaker Huston are ready to move on to doing the business of legislating for the benefit of the People of Indiana.

    1. To be frank, Huston’s pet project these days is a ridiculous proposal to annex the dying parts of Illinois into Indiana … so we could have even more struggling parts of Indiana that demand a handout from the Indianapolis area and the parts of Indiana that are growing. And he’s spent taxpayer money on this plan that he knows will go literally nowhere.

      For someone who claims to represent Fishers from a gerrymandered district that ensures Fishers residents could never vote him out, I don’t think Todd Huston would know “legislating for the benefit of the people of Indiana” if he tripped over the concept. Huston should be looking at the fact that much of his district is growing by leaps and bounds and figuring out how the rest of the state can replicate that success … instead of pretty much doing everything he can to hinder them.

  3. At some point, you would expect the legislators to communicate with the people that elected them and vote accordingly. Braun and Trump didn’t elect them.

    1. That would take some legislators in “safe” districts losing despite the safe districts they drew for themselves. Until that happens? They will continue to only care about the lobbyists and donors who give them those sweet, sweet campaign contributions.

      Maybe we should make campaign contributions a schedule I drug like heroin.

  4. Bruan is lost. He needs to realize the IN governor has limited power (given the simple majority over-ride of vetoes) and he’s over-promised and under-delivered on two major issues in less than 1 year in office. However, he continues to side with Trump, who should be gone by 2028, and 21 republican Senators voted against his wishes at least partially based upon public outcry.
