The "independent" commission in Colorado is also gerrymandering the fuck out of the electoral map to help Democrats. I'm sure Democrats will be bitching about this any minute now........any minute............

Did you actually read or understand the article? Oh right, you think a poor family of four spending 5k on masks a year is "cheap" so you're probably just confused.Quote:

2% is fucking huge in most elections, even in elections where one candidate is considered to be "safe" they sometimes barely win by 2 points.
So they are eliminating a current Republican House seat which is a safe Republican House seat and merging the district into the solidly blue district, most likely turning the state into a 5-3 Democrat majority.
Oh yes, this is perfectly balanced and "bipartisan"!
What's really funny is the original proposed map "favored" Republicans slightly by most likely turning the state into a 4-4, you know an even split. Democrats raged hell and demanded a change and they got it! And they STILL want more! Apparently "fair" in Democrat land is 7-1 in Democrats favor.
Those filthy nonpartisan commissions, how dare they have an equal number of Republicans, Democrats and Independents. Don't they know that anything that isn't totalling staffed by Republicans is stealing elections! All this fake news trying to spin a completely balanced commissions as anything but a massive conspiracy.Quote:

Remember drauz himself laughably claims to be an independent and yet he's more far left then even some of the Democrats on the forum.Quote:

I love exposing hypocrites, and I caught two big ones!
You're not smart enough to see the difference between an independent commission and whoever controls the state gov't making the maps? Yikes.Quote:
