The overwhelming sentiment is a what-about-ism used to justify ill-intentioned map drawing? No way 😁

Indeed. That seems to sum it up.

As to some of the other discussion we were having, I am curious for your answer to the question I asked, quoted in bold below,

The thing that makes the Tennessee redistricting example so very interesting to me is that those who claim this gerrymandering as an example of malice based on race are all too quick to dismiss the fact that the person holding the seat currently is white. Some have said that one of the potential leading candidates is a black woman. I don't know if that is true, but it would be ironic if all those claiming the Rs are doing this out of racial malice had to acknowledge that Rs actually might increase the number of black representatives in congress.

If a black woman were elected to a seat that was gerrymandered based on "politics," would you find that a net gain, or a net loss to the political strength of the black population?

Nope. They knew when they did it it was 🐂 💩. They are just used to getting away with crap and they thought they could get it in before the clock ran out.
It is all over now 'cept the crying.

As someone (maybe you) observed earlier in the thread, the Dems were successful in convincing the Virginia Supreme Court to delay ruling on the merits of the dispute until after the referendum. They believed the court would not have the political nads to overturn the "will of the people." They were wrong.

Yep, they'll try again if they keep control of the GA, which they may well do. The only question is whether the Va. Dems can alienate voters more than Trump before the election.

We are a really generous people aren't we? Let foreign nationals come in here and tear our country apart. You can't do that in any other country on the planet.

So in that case, yeah. Round 'em up and ship their asses back home.

That's funny, since they weren't doing anything to tear the country apart. They were just speaking their minds about a foreign conflict. Why don't you like liberty?

Listen, you people swallow a strait up Nazi in Platner and are obsessing on a dude who is against racist practices in voting. Then again the democrats have always been rabid racists. The founders of Jim Crow are now claiming the people who ended it are racist. Priceless.
Go away.

Touch a nerve?
You people? You know you islamofascist libs sure do assume a lot. I don't know enough about Platner to know if he's good or bad.

That's because you are a racist 🤡.

No sister, it's because there are two major metro areas in Tennessee, each large enough to take up a congressional district. It's got nothing to do with race. You libtards are so dumb.

Y'all are done. The garbage is over. It is totally lame that the out party is so terrible that they will lose seats in Nov. Even Reagan lost seats. It will be a historic election. Who'd thunk that a republican would win the mayor's seat in LA. Y'all are hurting.

Name one issue that you have been right about. You people have been painted into a corner and forced to support obnoxiously insane positions. The people you call morons are whipping your azz.
Give it up.

Uh, they made the 9th district smaller to make it intentionally a minority district, contrary to the rest of the state. Racist pure and simple. It was the only majority minority district in the state. How come?

And there you're wrong again, marxist islamofascist wannabe math guy. Wassammata, you don't like people calling names? Then don't call others names. Didn't they teach you that at the home?

Can't take an L when it's a W. Sorry to point it out grandma, but your lack of reading comprehension leads you to misunderstand people's opinions and then make an arse out of yourself, repeatedly.

Who is winning this war? I have heard that Iran is in a stronger position now than before the war, is that true?
Insert 🐂 💩 here.

Reading comprehension, grandma. Or maybe it's time for your nap. This is the Virginia gerrymandering thread.
We can say who won the war when it's over and we can see who got what.

Point is you are wrong and have nothing. Gerrymandering? Let's talk about New England. Are you upset with them?

No grandma, one more time, it's Virginia gerrymandering. Virginia's a state and it's not in New England.

So the crap going on in Virginia and the rest of the blue states is okay but when it happens somewhere else it is bad? Are you upset about the redistricting in Tennessee and the rest of the South? Should that be overturned?
You can insult me all you want because I couldn't care less and it's all you got, no arguments.

Put more 🐂 💩 here.

Yup the official will let you continue to run that ball into the endzone even though there was a flag on the play for holding. But that ball is coming back baby; with a 10 yard penalty to boot 😂
