I am going to local politics post because it's also lolcow related https://youtu.be/OTc9TcCmQhs?si=yZGXDZ3Mvcf6LzAU Hasan interviewed my former representative Cori Bush. She is hated by people that pay attention to St Louis politics because she believes she has the power to cure cancer by touching them and embezzled money by paying her own husband an absurd amount of money for security while she was in office. The district was worse off entirely because of her. She lost her seat in 2024 to Wesley Bell. Wesley Bell is someone who has done an alright job except he takes money from AIPAC.
Is the main AIPAC scam they donate to you to tar you with the zionist brush and accuse you of antisemitism if you refuse the donation?

In an optimistic point of view, I wonder if this downward spiral into gerrymandering every state will get people upset enough to do away with this. Maine does rank choice voting, which is cool. I know it isn't some panacea but

all of the states have a justification to redistrict now that the race based representation thing has finally been overturned

It's an issue of theory versus practice

Ranked choice should produce conditions for better candidates, but not if we still have a small number of seats and the monetary hurdle to run remains high (mostly due to campaign length)

The most impactful change we could make would be to expand the house, which I think would improve a lot of these conditions and at least sorta serve as a release valve for how ineffectual congress is

Kinda sorta, but you gotta deport a fuck load of people first to ensure immigrants don't directly then disenfranchise the voting of the domestic population

I am talking about federally becoming exponentially worse because you have likely 50-100 million people who are of dubious status who should not be here. Counting them on census in such districts and many already voting dubiously would flood the system in a one sided way mostly due to cali, ny, ect

Bc of the population proportionality. All we need truly is enforcement of immigration laws, closing NGO related assistance, and gov assistance for these people for them to leave. Then work on the districts.

“Get out of the way, Gigachad. I’m headed right towards you!” “No can do, Mr. Tornado. These black people won’t disenfranchise themselves.” “But…you’ll die!” “A sacrifice I’m willing to make.” “Heil Hitler” “Heil Hitler” QRT: MaxFlugrath Chaos in Alabama: Republican State Senators rammed through a bill to advance redistricting while tornado sirens blared, the chamber was being evacuated, and the livestream went dark. When this is how they pass it – that tells you everything you need to know.

he should have backed down and raped her to save the party

It was something along the lines of "suspend the Virginia constitution and the bipartisan redistricting committee to implement temporary districts to enforce voting fairness"
Kribbles politics
Question: Should the Constitution of Virginia be amended to allow the General Assembly to temporarily adopt new congressional districts to restore fairness in the upcoming elections, while ensuring Virginia's standard redistricting process resumes for all future redistricting after the 2030 census?
