Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

        Let’s be clear. If in a democratic republic it becomes clear that a political faction is using its power deliberately and chronically to dilute the vote of its political adversaries, and nothing is done about it, something will be done about it.

        I mean, it'll all be irrelevant when Justice Comey Barrett overturns Arizona Independent Redistrict Committee and claims that the Constitution requires partisan gerrymandering. Probably under the Republican Form of Government clause. [/darkhumor]

        Also depends on how they word it. Will the public understand. Had a few of those here and it's very confusing to some people.

        Nothing says democracy like campaigning to keep voters from voting on a measure that could determine whether voters' votes count.

        I feel you. We were very close to this situation in PA, but fortunately our State SC isn't quite as bad, altho Rs still own the leg (& we've have a D gov for the past 4 yrs) -- so new map still threatened
