    Voting rights advocates are suing Texas over the state's new congressional maps, claiming the maps dilute the vote of communities of color. The federal lawsuit was filed moments after GOP Gov. Greg Abbott signed the redrawn districts into law.http://apne.ws/yg2L1gh

        There is no doubt it dilutes the vote of communities of color. You should see this map. It is ridiculous. Map dismissed!

        Believe me, GOP will always draw the electoral maps to favour themselves and insure re-election. The other name for this is GERRYMANDERING

        And yet, it all began in my very democratic state —Massachusetts. The practice should be outlawed.

        Stop the steal should be the motto in Texas. I love how the GOP projected it for a couple years so they could do this.

        May the suits be fruitful and the districts be constructed fairly.

        In case it’s not blatantly obvious, Texas GOP want nothing to do with fair open democratic elections. They want to gerrymander & make it as difficult as possible for people of color to be represented & vote. They do not blink in setting ethics & morality aside to retain power.

        Didn’t the #SCOTUS rule on this and said they would not intervene? Democrat States has the same right. All states do it to suit the political agenda.
