#Gerrymandering
Better Boundaries is a Utah-based organization focused on protecting voters' rights, preventing partisan gerrymandering, and preserving citizen ballot initiatives. Republicans are trying to tear it apart and gerrymander the state. VOTE NO on Amendment B

Illinois is good at gerrymandering. The one brave Republican lost his job because of it.

Is it better is the question I guess.

It seems true that PR would require some constitutional finagling.

Well, guess we're stuck with FPTP anyway. And in Alberta, gerrymandering too.

Worst part about this is she’s basically untouchable in her district thanks to gerrymandering… by the democrats!
illinois republican representative mary miller on conservative talk radio just now says she "had a one on one conversation with trump about ilhan omar" and she's "very hopeful that something will happen in october"

don't know what to make of that, just jotting it down for future reference. ratfucks

LP - people think Ohio is all white maga farmers but it's NOT. Our cities are very diverse and we're being held hostage by gerrymandering

😑😑😑 do remember Ferguson protests? Where they pulled out the sound cannon tanks??? Boi plz they are redistricting our voter “areas” like a puzzle (gerrymandering) and they keep trying to take away mail voting from states that have it. States don’t have a legal day off from employment to go vote

A brand new episode of the #ReaganCaucus Podcast is online! We talked to legal analyst Rory Riley-Topping, co-author of "Draw the Line in Ohio," about the midterm elections, gerrymandering, and the possibility of a viable third party. @principlesfirst.bsky.social

The gerrymandering has nothing to do with a statewide election, which beshear won. 15% of Kentucky fascists DID change their mind. Or at least proportionally stayed home.

Ohio is only a "red state" because of extreme gerrymandering and cheating. And the cities are solidly blue. Cincinnati hasn't had a Republican mayor or council majority in decades.

Cleveland is a butt of jokes in Cincinnati, but the reverse is probably true.

We must keep in mind that all that gerrymandering they did is based on gaming the last election, not the one they're facing now. Making some of those districts closer based on the last map could backfire hard!

sabotage mostly will come during vote count & certification-all after voting…pre-vote effort is about voter purges, reducing voting sites + gerrymandering new maps & hindering registrations- all happening now+ bomb threats again at voting sites on Election Day- all plans are fully in motion.

Gardner's and CC's legacy is still being written, but both have played a significant role in efforts to reform American politics.

Though the Supreme Court failed to strike down gerrymandering, CC has helped elevate it to a national discussion, and that in itself is a step in the right direction.

Rucho v. Common Cause didn't legalize gerrymandering. Partisan redistricting has a long history, and the court's decision simply ruled it nonjusticiable.

But the case sparked public outcry, and by bringing it into the national spotlight, Common Cause took the first step toward tangible reform.

In 2019, Rucho v. Common Cause brought gerrymandering into the national spotlight.

Though the Court declined to issue an opinion for lack of jurisdiction, the case solidified gerrymandering as a source of political consternation and left its adjudication to state courts.

Common Cause's efforts to reform and eliminate gerrymandering in American politics have perhaps never been more relevant.

Since 2024, 34.8 million (about 1 in 10) Americans have been placed in newly drawn or altered House districts (Ballotpedia).

Common Cause has enjoyed success in its efforts.

Common Cause (CC) is a "watchdog group" with members in every U.S. congressional district. It is nonpartisan and relentlessly advocates for government reform.

CC has advocated for campaign finance reform, a national popular vote, and, most important for our purposes, an end to gerrymandering.

All the gerrymandering in this map, its beautiful. Tasteful. Elegant.

He's got an upward hill. Gerrymandering has tilted the scales so don't trust the polls.

Every time something awful happens in the South, somebody shows up in the comments with “they voted for this.”

Who is THEY, exactly?

The millions of Southerners who voted differently? The people fighting voter suppression? The communities carved up by gerrymandering? The organizers doing the work

The Republicans won't swear off fascism. The Dems will have to reformulate the rules (outlaw gerrymandering, expand SC, remove big money etc) to prevent minority rule. Then the Rs can fascist all they want but they will never have power again.

They get their big money from a lot of the same sources as the GOP - because the smart money always plays both sides of the street. The main problems are structural: Electoral College, gerrymandering, Citizens United and a 2 party system.

/2 (and for that matter, Emmanuel Rahm and the Obama midterm disaster... Obamacare was a good first step but the delayed rollout sunk Dems and led to the post-2010 census gerrymandering we are still paying for)

The origins of gerrymandering is literally autism slop btw

Is nothing sacred?
October 12, 2026 at 10:24 PM
I used to be independent. Republican election rigging in the form of gerrymandering shifted me to best third party or Democrat after the 2000 redistricting. Now it's lessor evil all the way. When somewhat ineffective is the best option then it is what it is.
