With the exception of my state, Missouri, the Republicans abandoned most of their gerrymandering pushes by May of this year, because the special elections they were losing in districts Donald had won by double digits in 2024 were piling up. There was just too much evidence they couldn’t ignore that the ass kicking was coming.
It’s one thing when a cost of living crisis is happening. It’s another thing entirely when it can be directly attributed to a president acting unilaterally.
You can’t gaslight people when they’re walking into a grocery store and seeing that their money only buys half of what it used to, or when they have to double their electric payment, etc.
Thankfully here in Missouri, though, we voted down that stupid Donald gerrymandering map last night AND passed Amendment 6, so it’s not coming back. Missouri got a big-time upgrade to democracy from that.
