The General Assembly is expected to quickly approve the map, which slices up Memphis, a majority-Black city that makes up most of the state’s lone Democratic district.
This new racial blindness in the law will somehow remove all black elected officials in the south which has the highest black population
How about that, intent is just so supremely hard to understand
Taxation and regulation without representation. Go ahead, raise the pressure and give people less to live for. I’m sure that’ll work out just fine…
Jim Crow Two Point Oh
Traitors to the American people.
That’s exactly what they think of you.
Weird map should be illegal, not on race basis, but, they made districts in the middle of nowhere smaller, while there are giant districts spreading over populous Nashville and Memphis in addition to giant rural area.
To analyze effect on election outcomes, https://engaging-data.com/county-electoral-map-land-vs-population/ (shows county results that districts don’t respect, afaiu) you could compare 2020 election results, and add Dems overperforming 10% over Biden, and that can be more than 1 tenessee district blue. If this is midterm map, memphis/nashville turnout can win 3-4 states.
This can happen, because GOP in Memphis/Nashville would run a lesser-nazi (not Trump sycophant) level candidate to just steal a few votes for senate/national level, and voter turnout can be low if they know district result is certain. Even splitting Memphis 3 ways, winning all 3 districts is possible. Nashville split is not clear to me.
You can be angry at GOP bs, but this is mostly an opportunity for Dems. Older map was a much longer shot at flipping a seat.
Safe Dem seats also is a recipe for pure Zionist first, do nothing else, rule. Same with racially divided seats that increase divisiveness, and increase pure facist ideology from bumfuck counties, who don’t need to concern themselves with humanist values, because none of their voter base has any.
