To those fleeing Texas Democrats that say that they are saving democracy in Texas and the United States relative to congressional redistricting, here are the facts:
MA: 36% Republican, O seats
CT: 42% Republican, O seats
ME: 46% Republican, O seats
NM: 46% Republican, O seats
NH: 48% Republican, O seats
RI: 42% Republican, O seats
VT: 32% Republican, O seats
HI: 38% Republican, O seats
DE: 42% Republican, O seats
Also, as to some of the blue states that were benevolent enough to give us a smidgen:
CA: 38% Republican, only 9 of 52 seats (20.9%)
IL: 44% Republican, only 3 of 17 seats (17.6%)
NY: 43% Republican, only 7 of 26 seats (26.9%)
MD: 34% Republican, only 1 of 8 seats (12.5%)
NJ: 46% Republican, only 3 of 12 seats (25%)
OR: 41% Republican, only 1 of 6 seats (16.7%)
Why is it that if Republicans do redistricting, it's a threat to democracy. Yet, if Democrats do redistricting, it's democracy itself.
