North Carolina is a lost cause. Democrats should focus on other places like Texas.

Republicans dont deny that the proposed maps for Congress and the state House and Senate give them a clear partisan advantage in future elections. But they say its permissible after the state Supreme Court which flipped last year from a Democratic majority to Republican ruled in April that the state constitution does not limit partisan gerrymandering.

Our own rule says we can cheat.

Forced redistricting in 2022 got the Republicans an even 7-7 split off of 52% of the vote, which is clearly just unacceptable.

Courts already ruled against their gerrymandering like 6 years ago.

Coopers only notable activity is being a Carolina Hurricanes super fan. NC GOP limited his ability to do anything when it was clear he was going to win.

Is that where we are going as a nation? Courts just overruling one another, never setting a precedent again?

That's chaos.
