The decision is a major victory for Republicans, wiping away a measure approved by voters to allow Democrats to gain as many as four House seats in the midterms.

The Republicans are about to gerrymander all the black representatives out of the South, so it's going to be a very uphill effort for Democrats to win a majority int he House, even if 60% of Americans vote for Democrats.

Use the “illegal” map anyway, who gives a shit?

None of this “legality” matters anymore and the EXTREME court will just bleat about it anyway.

Fuck em, use the new map anyway

Going to be screaming at my Dem reps to use the new maps anyway. Just like Ohio has been doing.

We voted for this and these fascist fucks invalidated our vote.

Ram legislation through ASAP just like every other Red state that DIDN’T put it to a vote of the people.
