I was asking because I don't think SanAndreasX has even been talking about gerrymandering.
| konnichiwa said: I don't really care that Democrats say they are not in favor they have done it aswell and I totally get it that they don't like it now when they are not in power but in general 'Gerrymandering' is wrong for me and I would hate it to see it happen it in EU. |
Certain states have been gerrymandered in favor of Democrats, but Republicans have generally done far more of it.
Out of the 11 most gerrymandered states, 9 of them are hugely in favor of Republicans. There is a massive difference in scale, and how they're weaponizing them, and acting like they're equivalent or worse somehow is dishonest.
They are not remotely done at the same scale, and Democrats are more in favor of independent commissions to prevent gerrymandering, and there has been more pushback in Democratic gerrymandered states like Pennsylvania, where there is more push to redraw the maps. This isn't particularly happening in the states that are Republican gerrymandered.
