2025/2026 Elections Congressional & State

[Caribbean Hen]

In Missouri, Republicans showed how far they will go to break the law, "wage warfare," and disenfranchise millions of voters in order to force their radical, unwanted agenda down the throats of every American. It's a state where almost half of the voters (40%) backed kamala harris but gerrymandering will likely give Republicans 7 of the 8 House seats.

Now do Texas.

From what I understand
It has been going on since the beginning of elections

Unfortunatel for America, the Democrats were much better at it than the Republicans and now the Republicans are just trying to catch up to survive

But it won’t take long for things to balance out again as people will see that the enabling Democrats didn’t fulfill my hopes and dreams, and I had to do it myself

No Donnie. Not everyone knows. You should try harder to convince.

That's the FAKE NEWS narrative that MAQA yahoos, severely lacking in self-awareness, keep telling each other.

Look at trump's poll numbers. People are already seeing that trump and enabling MAQA Republicans aren't fulfilling their hopes and dreams, much less basic necessities

Modern redistricting probably started with Texas Republicans in 2003 and the current wave of partisan (not court-ordered) redistricting started with trump pleading with Texas Republicans to redraw their maps which led to California and Virginia responding in kind.

The interesting thing is that Republicans had to dilute stronger Republican districts to spread Republican voters around to try and capture more seats. This makes these new districts easier to contest and with the falling popularity of trump and MAQA Republicans, could blow up in MAQA's faces.

Baloney

MAGA was never really that popular

It’s just the Democrats were less popular

The more spoiled Americans get the more will be flip-flopping back-and-forth between red and blue

We need is some red white and blue

Then prove it's baloney. Show us examples of where Democrats were much better at it than the Republicans that can't be countered by similar examples of Republicans doing it. This is where you throw out a "but, but, but deflection" and avoid providing those examples so you can continue lacking self-awareness and believing that you're correct.

And now MAQA is even less popular then Democrats.

We need some red white and blue from both sides. Cloaking themselves or their vehicles in MAQA crap, no matter how much red, white and blue it has, doesn't make someone more patriotic than someone else.

Virginia court declares state's redistricting vote was unconstitutional in legal win for Republicans
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/virgin ... epublicans

This question was confusing?

Should the Constitution of Virginia be amended to allow the General Assembly to temporarily adopt new congressional districts to restore fairness in the upcoming elections, while ensuring Virginia's standard redistricting process resumes for all future redistricting after the 2030 census?

We'll see what happens on appeal and with the state supreme court.

Some radical, unhinged, extremist sore loser is saying the vote was rigged.

What about Missouri?

In Missouri, Republicans showed how far they will go to break the law, "wage warfare," and disenfranchise millions of voters in order to force their radical, unwanted agenda down the throats of every American. It's a state where almost half of the voters (40%) backed kamala harris but gerrymandering will likely give Republicans 7 of the 8 House seats.

micro johnson is also being dishonest about New York and the 2024 redistricting. It was required by the courts, not pushed by Democrats, and the map was produced by an independent redistricting commission.

Missouri is a red state. Sure there are some deep deep red and deep blue states that are very gerrymandered, but no other competitive/purple state (Harris won by 5.6, previous VA gov was a conk) is now as gerrymandered as VA (10-1) if VA Supreme Court allows it (probably MAY-Hube ruling) But nice to see you are cheerleading the donks unprecedented gerrymandering for a purple state.

7-1 in a state where a horrendous Democratic candidate got 40% of the vote? I don't care if missouristan is a "red state", that's just as wrong as Virginia being 10-1.

trump and texastine started this round of gerrymandering. He owns it and all the problems it's creates.

FTR - I think all voters are the losers because of this gerrymandering. Politicians shouldn't be picking their voters. As Ganny says, we're living in stupid times. Thank you donald trump.

MO is solid red state where Trump won by 18.5 where it’s 7-1.
VA is a blue leaning purple state where Harris won by 5.7 where it’s 10-1. There‘s no comparison.

Of the 13 states decided by single digits in the 2024 election:
7 closest swing: GA, NC, PA, MI, WI, AZ, NV
+VA, NJ, NH, ME, MN, NM
None are remotely close to as gerrymandered as VA just did.

All the other uber gerrymandered states are among the 37 solid red and solid blue states that 2024 election all went double digits one way or the other. And only only a few of them are as gerrymandered as what VA just did.

TX may have started this round, but that was to catch up to all the uber gerrymandered blue states.

Donks started this uber gerrymander in the 13 competitive states with VA. I just hope when conks gain the trifecta control (gov + both houses) in one of them (don’t believe they have the trifecta in any now) that they aren’t pussies like conks were in Indiana, and respond in kind with an uber competitive state gerrymander of their own.

Bullshit. 40% of missouristan voted for harris (a horrendous candidate) and if the election were today, while she wouldn't win missouristan, she'd get more than 40% of the vote. Based on that, Democrats should have 3 representatives in Congress.

Despite your lame attempts to nitpick over percentages, Unhinged, radical MAQA Republicans have disenfranchised Democratic voters in missouristan just like Democrats disenfranchised Republican voters in Virginia

You state that "TX may have started this round, but that was to catch up to all the uber gerrymandered blue states" like it's a fact. Prove it!

BS. It’s nothing more than your speculating opinion that she would get more than 40% of the vote now. Fact: MO is solid red state where Trump won by 18.5.

Fact: VA is a blue leaning purple state where Harris won by 5.7, where it’s now 10-1. There‘s no comparison to any other purple state.

But since you want to make a nonsensical comparison of a solid red state to a purple state, then we can throw in examples from solid blue states in the 2024 election, which would of course be nonsensical to compare to purple states.
-CA Trump got 38.3% of the vote. House seats 43 donks, 9 conks. By your MO standard, conks should have 20 seats.
-NY Trump got 43.3% of the vote. House seats 19 donks, 7 conks. By your MO standard, conks should have 11 House seats.
-IL Trump got 43.5% of the vote House seats 14 donks, 3 conks. By your MO standard, conks should have 7 House seats.
-MA Trump got 36% of the vote House seats 9 donks, 0 conks. By your MO standard, conks should have 3 House seats.
-CT Trump got 41.9% of the vote. House seats 5 donks, 0 conks. By your MO standard, conks should have 2 House seats.
-WA Trump got 39% of the vote. House seats 8 donks, 2 conks. By your MO standard, conks should have 4 House seats.
-OR Trump got 41% of the vote. House seats 5 donks, 1 conk. By your MO standard, conks should have 2-3 House seats.
-MD Trump got 34.1% of the vote. House seats 7 donks, 1 conk. By your MO standard, conks should have 2 House seats.

I could bring up the percentages for texastine, floridastan, north carolina, ohio, south carolina, tennessee, etc. but that would be going down the rabbit hole rather than addressing the point.

A point that is flying right over your head - gerrymandering is bad and your percentages or red/purple/blue labels don't excuse or justify it.

That is an unbiased, non-tDS of either type opinion. Let's see if you can do it too or if your bias and worship for all things trump/MAQA is too deeply ingrained to overcome.
