The GOP’s elimination of democracy in Wisconsin

Number_58

I'm one of the deplorables lefty warns you about.
Another example of the GOP taking actions to eliminate any semblance of democratic processes…


Largely as a result of extreme gerrymandering and laws shifting power from the governor (a Dem), Wisconsin, a 50/50 state that often votes for Dems for president, will now have a skewed veto-proof state legislature and a governor who is largely irrelevant, as will be the Dem party. Again, in a state that is roughly 50% Democrats.

Enjoy our nation’s last days of democracy.
Did they learn that from their neighbors to the south? What is it with liberals that their methods are only bad when the other side does it too?

I feel a bit lightheaded. Maybe you should drive.
What is inconsistent? Polls showed very close races in many of the house and senate elections around the country. When they are within the margin of error it is entirely consistent for either candidate to win. Feel free to show any poll within a few days of the election that was very wrong.

This was on October 31.

Not when the electorate by all indications is pissed at the party in power. In which case you would expect the out of power party to win more of the close races.

We know why Democrats aren't doing anything about the homeless problem in the big cities which they control.

Illegal aliens + airlifts = housing saturation = skyrocketed rents = homelessness.
Speaking of 'illegal aliens', what about the rural Trump cultists? It's all the fault of those damn Democrats! :rolleyes:

'Compassionate Conservatism' is a myth used to fool the ignorant. It takes those that vote for Democrats that help alleviate the problem with things like Farm Aid.

Please. The Dems are mere pikers with this stuff. The GOP has rigging elections down to a science, aided and abetted by the SCOTUS wingers.

From your link:

“Democrats in some states even gave up their own power by pushing for independent commissions to draw boundaries.”

While the Republicans relentlessly rig things in the states where they can exercise control.

Are you saying since GOP states did it, it's okay for Illinois to do it? Please, please condone Illinois gerrymandering to Democrats since the GOP did it elsewhere.

No. I’m saying what I said. I thought that was obvious. Focus.
But...the only state you're bitching (like a little girl) about "unfairly gerrymandering" is the state where Republicans get favored as an outcome. It's not "unfair gerrymandering" in Illinois...right?

Unless the candidates you run regurgitate crap that the voters know is a lie, Lake and Oz lied about the 2020 election. Walker is a moron talking about werewolves and vampires. Add to that the war republicans declared on a woman's right to choose not to carry a pregnancy to term and some who still had a memory of a republican riot trying to overturn an election.

Not true. I could also discuss the other states where the GOP has rigged things. Wanna do that?

Knock yourself out...I already exposed your hypocrisy. I'm done here. I feel if it's being allowed to happen against the Republicans in Illinois, I have no problem with it happening to the Democrats in other states.

So I'm done with this conversation...unless you want to condemn Illinois' gerrymandering that favors the Democrats.

It’s obvious that you can’t defend Wisconsin or the other states where the GOP has rigged the elections through their (usually racist) gerrymandering, and other election rigging measures. You’re only capable of your usual lame whataboutism.

Here’s the stats on Illinois - zero majority black districts. You really think GOP whining is justified?

Sorry...you talked about a paster. I wasn't sure of what you meant.

I am only responding to posts in the Karen Carpenter thread, between now and Christmas. Heaven has priority over earth.

Yep...I do feel the GOP whining is justified.
