Reply to comment by Advanced-Guard-4468 in Pennsylvania politics are heated. It soon could be utter chaos by Yelloeisok
So you support fair non partisan redistricting that gives everyone a better chance to get representatives that share their values? Or are you one of those dipshits that goes "Hurr Durr look at all the big red splotches." Never mind some of those splotches have 10 people and an old cow living there but get outsized influence because of the way things currently are.
Let's put this another way. Say you lived in an apartment building and one guy for some reason rents 10 apartments. Lets say there are 5 other appartments and each one has 1 to 2 people in it. Now let's say your landlord is awesome and lets you guys vote on things like quiet hours, living space rules etc. Does he get more say because he physically takes up more space? Do the rest of you just give up? Well everyone else wanted quiet hours from 11 pm to 7 am but Dan decided he wants this place to be 24 hour quiet hours? We wanted a Christmas Tree in the lobby but Dan voted for a tower of dildos so Merry Fucking Christmas.
Oh and by the way I was very close to someone who went to church with one of the main republicans invovled in this. When he confronted him about the stopen election stuff and the conspiracies the rep said he knew it was b.s. but it was what people were calling him about so he had to pretend to believe it. And he didnt want to upset the voters.

You could have asked me like an adult and asked about gerrymandering, instead you asked and explained it to me like I'm a five year old. Since you didn't you don't deserve an answer.
So the rep who gerrymandered the districts said that's what the voters wanted. Sure they did, not everyone believes win at all costs.

There is nothing clean about politics. It's raw and dirty it always has been. Do I like it no.
