In other news...


No more judge shopping for NY Republicans. If the NYCoA gives the legislature another shot (big if), the NYGOP will have to sue in one of four very liberal counties to get the map overturned.

Ugh. This smells like something Republicans in Texas or North Carolina would do, but at this point it's got to be pure fighting fire with fire. Republicans are reasonably and unapologetically gerrymandering the hell out of states to protect their Auntie majoritarian power base against increasingly bad generational and demographic tides all across the country. I want to see some equivalent of making political redistricting largely unconstitutional, but since Kennedy retired for the decision was brought before him and Garland was cock blocked for his nomination, McConnell essentially stole that issue from being decided favorably by The Supremes anytime for forthcoming decades.
New York had a fair map last year and Democrats would have won the house even if they had narrowly lost the popular vote. Pleading for a gerrymander in NY is clearly anti-democracy, you’re just a partisan hack.
