    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............

    It's 12 members, 4 Republicans, 4 Democrats, and 4 Independent. I don't see anything in there that makes it blatantly one sided, both sides got a little something and lost a little something.

    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.

    Here let me help you out:

    8 total districts
    4 are safe for Democrats
    3 are safe for Republicans
    1 is a so called "swing" district which voted almost 2% in Democrats' favor in last election

    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.

    What's worse, whine whine whine, is how an invalid map which was that the so-called nonpartisan commission was forced to follow a 2018 Colorado Law to draw a new map per the census. Stop the steal days Dreaven!

    Right, because there is no way an "Independent" couldn't really be a Democrat, as evidenced by an eight district state being divided up into 5 Democrat seats and 3 Republican seats. 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.

    Gee how did I know Democrats would bitch, moan, whine, complain, and carry on that Republican states gerrymander but when Democrat states do the exact same shit it's just excuse, deflection, and general not-giving-a-single-shit attitude.

    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.
