      Once again, the only way Republicans can win elections is dishonestly 😐

      When does it stop? Why do they have to cheat? They are so worried about midterms. Get better polices!

      North Carolina is already gerrymandered to the limit like most republican states so this may backfire and cause republicans a huge loss!

      Or the 80% of non-republicans nationwide will eventually rebel when they realize how much they outnumber republicans.

      Cheating to get power is a lot easier than holding on to that power.

      And Remember that North Carolina’s 2010 maps were considered partisan gerrymandering gone wild. Because when the architect of their 2010 maps was asked why there were only 3 Dem seats on the map despite the state only having a slight Republican party lean, his answer was because he didn’t think he could pull off a map with only two Dem seats.

      Trump claims he is one of the most popular presidents in US history yet is forcing red states to re-draw district lines to ensure they win the midterms.

      Math isn’t mathing

      The only way they can win is to cheat. F*ck you if you support this. Every democratically controlled state should mid-decade gerrymander every one of their repugnicans out of Congress. Republicans are the absolute worst of humankind.

      The NC GOP is playing a dangerous game. It’s already a very safe state for them because of current gerrymandering but they are almost maxed out with what gerrymandering can do for them. If they do redraw the maps, they risk losing ground in some of their safe areas so if dems are smart, they start targeting the risky areas to counter-act any new gerrymandering. NC is pretty purple already even with overdone gerrymandering, there is a chance (if dems go all out) that this move can backfire.

      How has this piece of crap unified all Republicans to do his bidding???

      Where are the rest of the blue states in this? California has their redistricting referendum coming up for a vote in November, but that’s only five seats. All the other blue states need to be doing this as well.

    17. TheShipEliza on

      Or lose seats in what is sure to be a wave election in 26. Gotta be careful with those margins.

    18. No_Telephone_6213 on

      I have a sneaky suspicion this map redrawing sht is going below up in their faces, at some it’s just nothing more to gain and more of lose but we’ll see

    19. Turkino on

      Blaming California for being the reason for doing it when it was Texas that caused California to do what it is doing.

      It’s been this way for years here but this one just finishes the fight. It’s a very very purple leaning blue state. But our state govt is controlled by republicans because here our land votes. Not the people. Bumfuck counties smaller than neighborhoods in metro have more reps than some areas. NC has had 4. Yes 4 republicans as governor. That’s it. But our legislature is and has been run by rural ass used car dealers and small town mover and shaker republicans forever now. This just makes it so Raleigh and Charlotte are the only blue areas and the rest of the state is red.

      It is more obvious than ever that the electoral college is being weaponized because it’s out of date. One to one voting should be the only way to vote.

    23. DiscoRabbittTV on

      What are the top 5 pertinent businesses that donate to the NCGOP that we can blacklist and never purchase from again?

    25. SeniorFlyingMango on

      If their policies are so popular why do they have to redraw districts?

    26. Topheriffic on

      Not surprised. All this talk of „rigged elections“…who’s rigging it again?

    27. QTsexkitten on

      It’s always strange to me how much of a mess NC is with state governance. So many incredible institutions of higher learning. Many very liberal urban areas. Well populated.

      And yet they’re constantly in the news for fuckery within the state legislature and courts.

    32. dirtyrounder on

      Supreme court should have swatted this bullshit down. And protected the voting rights act.

      Nope. Thanks roberts

      Reichpublicans all over the nation are a deadly, metastatic cancer. We need an immediate excision of the biggest tumors, and to undergo chemotherapy immediately to treat the cancer…

    39. dBlock845 on

      Dems absolutely have to push through statehood for DC and PR the next time they get power. It’s the only way to balance this arcane, dogshit system that allows for minority rule. Or a wave election that overwhelms their attempts at diluting districts and gerrymander where we can to offset it.

    40. Cirque14505 on

      Clearly your policies are shit if you need to literally pull every maneuver you can to not get voted out. This shouldn’t be allowed bc it clearly goes against the will of the people.

    41. Jhewitt1111 on

      Super purple state, Dem Gov for at least 12 years. 11 republicans to 3 democrats in congress. Totally not Gerrymandered

    42. jdtrouble on

      Looking forward to Republicans diluting their „safe“ districts in an election year where they’re going to get plastered. We just need to somehow ensure they don’t ratfuck the election and get away with it

    43. Commercial_Wait_9942 on

      Can this backfire and people just vote for Dems? I don’t quite understand how this all works.

    44. luciuspiii on

      They are running scared. I hope everyone is already getting their voting situation sorted out.

    45. iam_mms on

      What kind of election system allows the politicians to decide who they want to vote for them. And even crazier, openly choose the election result months before the election. Are you guys sure you’re a democracy?

    46. JollyBengali7 on

      If the democrats gave a shit about the things they ought to, we wouldn’t have to deal with this
