Lawyers representing state legislative leaders were in court Thursday in Raleigh, arguing to throw out an anti-gerrymandering lawsuit that targets the state’s new political districts.
The lawsuit argues that the state constitution guarantees the right to fair elections, and it says the new districts violate that promise. The Republican-led legislature argues that no such right exists, since it’s impossible to define what “fair” means.
Republicans haven’t wanted fair elections in decades.
Or… ever…
Well, unless you count the time they used to be the democratic party before everything was switched.
In a fair election that everyone voted in, there wouldn’t be any republicans. They have to cheat to be in power, what does that say?
I wish I had neighbors like yours.
