    NEW: Me + @jmartNYT on how GOP power plays in Wisconsin and Michigan are a preview of what's to come, as highly gerrymandered states are forced to reckon with the impact of highly partisan maps. Interviews with both incoming Govs: Whitmer and Evershttps://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/10/us/politics/michigan-wisconsin-republicans-midwest.html …

        Republicans in Michigan and Wisconsin have beneffited from gerrymandered maps, particularly in local races. But as these maps come under threat from courts and independent referendums, GOP has lashed out rather than accepting new playing field.https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/10/us/politics/michigan-wisconsin-republicans-midwest.html …

        To this point, Dems think they'll win the long term battle, and GOP actions will embolden voters to break from GOP going forward. Republicans are making the opposite bet: win today, worry about tomorrow later.https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/10/us/politics/michigan-wisconsin-republicans-midwest.html …

        The lack of self awareness on this issue by Democrats is astounding.

        Simple fix is to vote in Democrat Supreme Court Judges, then sue the district gerrymandering as being unconstitutional. Takes a while, but the law does work to level the playing field.

        The GOP has used Gerrymandering as a power grab to discount your #Vote. It starts with State races, and is why every election, candidate and item on a ballot is important. Get active now! Start working on helping more people get registered. #YourVoteIsYourVoice
