Subject: Re: CA redistricting
But that doesn't make a Dem trying to gerrymander "OK". If it's wrong for one, it's wrong for everyone.

Sure, it's a black and white issue, right? Nope, I agree with Bill and AlphaW on this one. Fight fire with fire. It was the dems who've been trying since 2010 to enact an anti-gerrymandering bill, but no way do the pubs want to play. OK, then...

Also, as Matthew Dowd has pointed out how terrible the "enhanced" Texas gerrymandering is (since it is already gerrymandered in favor of the magats), it is extremely racist: "Texas population is more than 60% non-White, and less than 40% white. And the GOP wants to draw at least 2/3rds of the seats to hold white Republicans. Racist, undemocratic, wrong."
