Pennsylvania GOP to ignore state Scotus Order

Doesn't matter. The justices are going to draw their own map anyway and hand it over to the Democratic governor. The Democratic executive branch is going to hold the next elections based on those lines. Democracy has been restored in Pennsylvania, the will of the people will no longer be violated with the electoral fraud that is gerrymandering.

it is the constitutional duty and responsibility of the legislature to define district boundaries. it is not within the constitutional purview of the courts to order changes.

elections have consequences. deal with it.

The next election is going to be held under the PA Supreme Courts boundaries. That election will have consequences, I assure you, and you will have to deal with them.

It doesn't matter what your opinion on the constitutionality of that is, as you are not the arbiter of the meaning of the constitution of Pennsylvania. The supreme court of Pennsylvania is. And they have spoken.
 
Scarnati’s defiance may not matter in a practical sense. Plaintiffs’ lawyers turned over computerized voting and map records as the basis of their expert’s testimony for why he believed the GOP-made maps were based on partisan politics as outlined in the lawsuit brought by the League of Women Voters and some Democratic voters.

The PA supreme court already has the information they need. They were just asking the legislature to play nice. They do not require their cooperation, and will carry on regardless of their consent.

Florida's ban on felons voting ruled unconstitutional by judge

(Reuters) - Florida’s policy of banning felons from voting until they petition the government is unconstitutional and forces them to “kowtow” to the whim of state politicians, a federal judge ruled on Thursday.

Holy smoke.

Republicans are now routinely losing the popular vote in presidential elections, sparsely populated conservative states are given disproportionate power in the Senate, and the GOP has engaged in drastic gerrymandering to grip onto power on the House of Reps, and legislatures across the country.

It is crystal clear the Republicans govern without the consent of the people - and they know this. Which is why they and their elderly, geriatric white base are relentlessly gaming the system to cling to power...like grim death!

well this is where you're wrong, brother. I won't have to deal with them because it's pennsylvania and not texas. you're also wrong about the arbiter of any constitution because the court didn't write it, we the people did. fuck the courts, especially when they are wrong or are usurping power that doesn't belong to them. personally, I hope the court goes so far out of bounds that the people kill them all.

Our redistricting is done because of changes in population. As farms are sold and and rural areas are developed, it changes the population of these areas.

Pick any of the districts where there is a purposely gerrymandered black majority. You'll have your top 10 and then some.

the 3rd District is protected by the Voting Rights Act and a non-compact shape may be necessary to ensure it remains an effective African-American seat.

#5
a gerrymandered district created by Democrats to ensure themselves a seat in western Illinois -- but which this year was snatched from their grasp by Tea Party candidate and now congressman-elect Bobby Schilling.

Owing to historic tensions between the Hopi and the Navajo Native American tribes and since tribal boundary disputes are a federal matter, it was thought inappropriate that both tribes should be represented in the U.S. House of Representatives by the same member. Since the Hopi reservation is completely surrounded by the Navajo reservation, and in order to comply with current Arizona redistricting laws, some means of connection was required that avoided including large portions of Navajo land, hence the narrow riverine connection.

oops.....created by Demmycrats....

also created by demmycrats
As with AZ-2, the intention behind IL-4 was to create an ethnic enclave, in this case an Hispanic-majority district within an otherwise overwhelmingly non-Hispanic Chicago. Problem is, Chicago has two completely distinct and geographically separate Hispanic neighborhoods -- one Puerto Rican, the other Mexican -- but neither is large enough to constitute a district majority on its own. Solution? Lump all Hispanics together into a supposedly coherent cultural grouping, and then carefully draw a line surrounding every single Hispanic household in Chicago, linking the two distant neighborhoods by means of an uninhabited highway margin. Voila! One Hispanic congressperson, by design.
