Well, what's new? White liberals want to crack minorities...Hey guys! That 29% VAP Latino district, might, if you're lucky, become 50% VAP just in time for the next census when the district will be redrawn anyway....
http://www.omaha.com/article/20110428/NEWS01/704299983/1003INCOLN — A redistricting proposal that would create a Nebraska legislative district in South Omaha with a Hispanic majority brought cries of protest from three Democratic state senators Thursday.
Mello's District 5 currently has 29 percent Hispanic voters. The neighboring east Omaha district represented by Sen. Jeremy Nordquist, District 7, has 38 percent Latinos. Those numbers would shift to 13 percent and 57 percent, respectively, under the Lautenbaugh-Nelson plan.
How 57% constitutes 'packing', well, I dunno...
