Obama Steps In to Fuel Trump’s Midterm Nightmare – The former president has voiced his support for a redistricting referendum, which will favor Democrats come November.

Democrats were willing to vote on a bill that would ban gerrymandering altogether, and Republicans (who want people of color disenfranchised) outright refused. This is 100% the Republicans’ fault.
We are fighting fire with fire.

Title is misleading. The redistricting referendum only goes into effect to counteract any unfair republican redistricting that arises. It’s not to “favor” democrats

All the redistricting the republicans did in Texas is backfiring tremendously lmao no only cause dem decided to fight back but because they based their redistricting on gains made with Latinos, which they’ve lost now

Cool, now do a new apportionment act that actually enforces the correct number of representatives by population based on the Constitution’s definition – 1 representative per 30,000 people.
Its time for cities where the majority of people live to actually have fair representation.

Honestly we really need Obama to speak out more right now.
This is good, but we need a leader to emerge from the shadows.
Obviously he can’t run again or anything like that, but we need some morality and sensibility coming from the left.
It sure as fuck isn’t coming from Schumer, he’s too busy chortling netanyahu’s balls.

Let’s fucking go. Let’s see Obama became 1% of the socialist and dirty politician they claim him to be.

Maybe i should write to Obama, and see if he could get behind repealing the Reapportionment Act of 1929 and uncapping the House of Reps.

Just a reminder.
