    The Supreme Court gave AL a one week deadline to draw a new map or they would draw it for them.

    Alabama is choosing to let that happen in order to save face with their POS base.

    By the next election, there will be a 2nd black district. There is no way around it.

      Seeing this, wouldn’t anyone, who isn’t part of the hard core of the POS base, get really PO’d and motivated to do all the poll work etc to push the GOPers out? This isn’t a long term strategy, and it’s coming from a minority of eligible voters. So wouldn’t they likely lose in the long run? Not flexible enough to keep with the changing times; they make themselves irrelevant. SMH
