How are 9 states able to suppress the GOP vote so easily without a whimper from advocates?

I can not even imagine if this were done with other "classes" of voters. Why are there no lawsuits or riots related to this obvious and very unfair advantage?

What is the percentage of non white people in these states?


Delaware: \(\sim 38\%\) – \(39\%\)
Connecticut: \(\sim 33\%\) – \(34\%\)
Massachusetts: \(\sim 29\%\) – \(30\%\)
Rhode Island: \(\sim 28\%\) – \(29\%\)
Maine: \(\sim 8\%\) – \(9\%\)
Vermont: \(\sim 8\%\) – \(9\%\)

How are the economies in those states? Do we know anything about their criminal or homeless population rates?

Once we do find out, I guess we could compare the numbers to the 9 states able to suppress the GOP vote so easily, don't ya think?

The states you're showing other than maybe NH and NM (maybe) have virtually no shot. These are just blue states and probably will be forever. Georgia will be like one of these states eventually. Texas I do have hope for.

No homeless in droves in the northeast. Even the homeless know not to stay there.

These are complete welfare states.

People there are so used to paying high taxes, they don't know anything else. Even the Republicans there are used to it. Crime is bad in the bigger cities but again, that's expected.

Neither party should be allowed to draw districts. In a world with AI, every state should be redistricted removing the politicians from the process. Whether it’s a Republican or Democrat, a gerrymandered district gives you unimpeachable candidates.

maybe so, but the Democrats have been cheating so much and for so long, it’s refreshing to see the right step up and start balancing the scale

How do dems cheat?

Illegals voting
Dead people voting
Extreme gerrymandered
Stuffing the ballot box with illegal vitea (especially mail in)

Southern states are FINALLY drawing more favorable republican districts, but they are doing so by creating districts that make geographic sense - the gerrymandered districts in blue states are beyond ridiculous

The whining and gnashing of teeth from the left as the right fights back is awesome to watch

Use Maidenhead grid squares starting at one side, top or bottom or a corner of the state.
This would reduce long drives for candidates and take politics completely out of it.

Whoever happens to be in the squares is there.

To me, using maidenhead grid squares will allow the area in which people live to be responsible for their politics.

I would love nothing more than to see the race baiting grift in Louisiana be done away with.
