I believe if you check your census numbers and state legislative stats you will see that the current Republican dominance of the redisitrcting levers was, contrary to what you implied in your last post, not in place prior to 2010. Before 2010 while they called the shots the Democrats were almost as bad as the Republicans in the unfair use of gerrymandering. Unfortunately for the Democrats they were asleep at the switch in 2010 and the Republicans gained enough seats in state houses to dominate the redistricting in 2011. They were helped by the fact that by then computers had become so advanced they had the political scoop house by house rather than by just census tracts. Republican politicians took the stats and ran with them literally choosing their voters rather than the voters choosing them.
Check the facts for yourself. You need to be a little more careful before popping off CRC.
As for Justice Robert's comments about the legality of partisan districting...well again, just because it is legal doesn't make it right!
Now in closing, in the future will you still ''see no problem'' with the majority using their political advantage to further enhance their position when it is the Democrats doing it? Tell the truth now CRD!
