The worst congressional gerrymanders of the 2020s

With two post-census election cycles in the books, congressional district maps are mostly set for the remainder of the decade – which means we will know the outcomes of the vast majority of House elections before voters even cast ballots in November 2026, 2028 and 2030. That’s because most...

Just following the examples set by democrats in NY, CA, IL. Why don't democrats want the voting districts in those state to reflect the share of the vote received by Trump in the latest election. He got 37 to 43 percent of the votes in those states and yet the voting districts are gerrymandered so the democats control 73 to 82 percent of the districts having a democrat in that seat in the House.

This is what this is about:

How Texas Republicans want to dismantle Democratic districts​


In drawing the map, Republicans targeted five Democratic-held districts with precision, carefully cutting out blue areas and redistributing them to other districts which are already safe for either party and replacing them with solidly red turf.

The map looks likely to perform well for Republicans if the party continues to do as well in the state as they did in 2024, when Trump won by nearly 14 points. However, if a future election looks more like 2020, when Trump’s margin was less than half that, several of these districts could be much more competitive.

Total lies. NY and CA actually get very good grades when it comes to gerrymandering.

I've already corrected you once....yet you keep repeating your MAGA bullshit over and over. --

Are you attempting to say that the Democrats have stopped gerrymandering?

I am saying the party you are referring to hasn't existed in a very long time (that party is now republican in nature at this point).
