Democrats Go Scorched Earth on Redistricting While Republicans Curl Into the Fetal Position

With a mid-term election less than a year away, states are scrambling to finish up the redistricting process. But while you are most likely to hear about gerrymandering from the mainstream media in reference to Republicans, the truth is that the most egregious examples are coming from Democrat-run states.
You’ve probably seen the spaghetti-on-a-wall map drawn in Illinois which nuked several GOP-held seats. Oregon, Maryland, and New Mexico have also pushed the envelope, squeezing every last Democrat seat possible into their redistricting plans. In states with “independent commissions” run by academics, Democrats have stacked the deck as well, with California’s blue-bolstering map being an example.
Now, we can add New York to the list. The state has released a 22-4 D to R map that eliminates four Republicans even as it lost a congressional seat due to the census.
