Price's map has 0.005% chance at passing through the floor.

I think that’s the right decision.

I may have not caught it, but I heard him say "we're not doing a 6-0 map." I didn't hear anything about an agreement.

It results in 5 safe republican districts rather than having 2 or 3 competitive ones.

I don't buy that excuse. There is a good 6-0 map that would be rock solid.
Typical pussy republicans.

I don’t know how feasible a true 6-0 map is with our demographics - go for 6-0 and you end up with 4 red and 2 purple districts.

I love how they think they can’t be represented by a white. shite, I’ve had Cleo as my rep forever. You think he and I agree on much?
Am I disenfranchised?

Personally, I love the 6-0 map that I saw because the districts (with the exception of the one for Monroe which includes the northern Florida Parishes) all make geographical sense.

Yes! I don't see much risk with this one: SB 116

I have no idea what’s going on behind the scenes but it’s pretty clear that bill is not in play.

wtf are you talking about district 4 almost has to span the entire state, district 5 has to take even more land area, while district 6 is very land smallPosted on 5/12/26 at 8:38 pm to thejuiceisloose

I'm aware, districts are supposed to be proportional to other districts

That's due to population density. The target population size for a district is 761,169. You're not getting a map without some sort of giant districts covering both North and Central La.
For example, if I take the current estimated populations of the state by parish, I would need to go two parishes south from across the entirety of the Arkansas border (plus Jackson Parish) to make one district. That's 15 parishes.
A 2nd district would be from the 3rd parishes down (excepting Lincoln) all the way to a line from West Feliciana and Point Coupee all the way to Beaureguard. That's 19 parishes.
On the other end (populationally), Jefferson and Orleans would have ~20k too many people for a single district.

I loved hearing the linguistic gymnastics tonight.
I do have to give credit where it's due though, they were actually doing the smart thing by reframing it as creating "Democrat" districts instead of "black" or "minority" districts. "Opportunity district" was probably my favorite though.
All that said, I didn't realize tonight was "Democrat Victimization Night". I'm not sure which speech I liked best... the effeminate kid with the tired but ominous "we're watching" mantra, the guy who pretty much called to set all Republicans on fire or the risky gamble of having Karen Carter Peterson speak while she is on "retreat" from the legislature.

Damn black racists still trying to disenfranchise non-blacks even after the Supreme Court shite canned their grift of the past 60 years.
