Federal court blocks Alabama's new congressional map

11. I like to be optimistic, but I'm from Ohio

Here we voted twice to demand fair districts, US and state.
The Republicans drew up their first map that was absurd in a state that is nearly equal at 54% to 46% favoring republican. They decided that out of 15 US Congressional districts, we should have only 3 democratic and 1 toss up.

They didn't even pretend to comply and with a republican appointed panel, the Rs outnumbered Ds 4 to 2 so it sailed right through. The Dems sued just like in Alabama and a court decided they had to go back to the drawing board. They came back with nearly the same map without the toss up district as the deadline approached.

They quit caring about cheating long ago when they discovered they can't win elections on their merits and vision.
