re: Supreme Court rules in favor of Black voters in Alabama redistricting case

quote:

It's a fair ruling. African Americans currently only have 14% representation in the state when they are almost 27% of the population.

based on a fundamentally racist concept that only black people can represent black people and only white people can represent white people

SO now they will gerrymander the shite out of the state to get 2 black districts.

The Cook Partisan Voting Index says the 7 current districts are:

R+16
R+17
R+19
R+33
R+17
R+18
D+14

So now what they will have to do is gerrymander it a lot more to get a second black seat when the first black seat is already closer to even than any of the 6 Republican seats.

That is ALL based on race, without any hint of "discrimination" in the results but maybe the dems can get another seat.

They would NEVER be able to carve out a second seat except for the fact that back people are racist voters and they are easy to identify.


I guess all of the remaining 5 Republican seats will need to be +25 at least to be "fair".

What a fricking racket.
