Knowledge: Gerrymandering is a favorite MAGA tactic but blue states do a bit too

 Gerrymandering is a favorite MAGA tactic but blue states do a bit too 

(3.3 MAGA to 1 DEM seat)

Gerrymandering deprives voters of their democratic voice by packing or stacking 

30 House Seats are gerrymandered and 23 of those are GOP/MAGA seats

Source: Brennan Center

MAGA/GOP most recently engaged in 3.3 TIMES as much gerrymandering as the democratic party.  23/7=3.29

11 states favored GOP, 4 pushed democrats

DO NOT BELIEVE "BOTH SIDES LIES" about THIS ISSUE!!!!

GERRYMANDERS often are racial and ethnic ones because white people are more likely to vote republican.

Racial GERRYMANDERS are IN CLEAR violation to the voting rights act

US Supreme Court even has been forced to admit that, 

despite their 6 extreme right wing justices.  Alabama example.  Google it.

 

NOW Texas GOP is trying to add 5 more MAGA seats to their already extremely gerrymandered state map that ALREADY manufactured 5 MAGA house seats above what a fair map might have produced.

UTAH IS GERRYMANDERED DESPITE A VOTER INITIATIVE THAT PASSED, BANNING IT

In Utah, there would probably be one democratic house member but the GOP disregarded a voter directive to have free and fair elections (GOOGLE IT) 

Utah Supreme Court ruled their "lawless disregard for voter demand" as unconstitutional.  Final resolution is too slow in being implemented.

MAGA GOP in Utah was poised to attack the courts because they stood up for us voters on this issue.

The district lines in Utah split democratic stronghold in Salt Lake City in 4 neat quadrants in order to dilute the will of the people

People who love democracy can be inspired by Heather Cox Richardson

She urges us to view the latest atrocities as a panicked effort to consolidate power before it is too take.   

GOP is starting to push back about Epstein and the Texas gerrymander has been called out as wrong by 3-4 GOP reps.  

Blake Moore is one of those House reps!

Public push back matters now more than ever. 

We can resist in thousands of small and large ways.

Join us, be brave.  We will stand with you.
