When a Candidate promises to repeal obamacare and then does the opposite as a Senator. That has nothing to do with gerrymandering and everything to do with selling out to those who buy Congress. Democrats have the same problem. They promise one thing and then don't deliver.
Why are democrats abandoning the black people of America, they very people who have given them support for all these many years? The way the left has treated the black man is despicable. BUT, people are waking up. Trump has exposed the left for what they really are, slave traders. Out with the old black slaves, in with the new Hispanic ones. Using people just for votes and then casting them aside is what the left has always been about.
The House is so gerrymandered it should be impossible for Dems to take it,even Obama couldnt do it in 2012 and he won by a good margin.If Dems take The House that shows the people are more determined to stop trump than they were to re elect Obama.
In fact Democrats have a much longer and bigger history of gerrymandering than Republicans. The current trend with Republicans is simply payback. The bottom line is that both parties are guilty. There needs to be a rule that states must use independent districting committees to draw districts.
What is worse now -- is that with modern computer and mapping tools -- there is the ability to create gerrymandered districts with surgical precision.
Early voting sets presidential pace https://www.wral.com/early-voting-sets-presidential-pace/17937989/ Raleigh, N.C. — The early voting trend looks a lot more like a presidential election year than it does a midterm election. After five days of early voting, including the first weekend, more than 450,000 people have voted, according to statistics compiled Monday by Catawba College Professor Michael Bitzer, one of North Carolina's authorities on politics and voting. Those numbers are a lot more like 2016 than 2014, let alone the last time North Carolina had a "blue moon" election like this year's election – a ballot without a presidential, gubernatorial or U.S. Senate race. What's it all mean? Too soon to say, Bitzer said Monday. "If this trend of looking like a presidential election continues to hold (and we may/may not see that happen this week), then I would think that all bets are off for what this truly portends," the political science professor said in an email. "We’ve never seen something like this kind of an early start to the polls in a North Carolina mid-term election, so we may be comparing apples to watermelons." Here's some initial analysis from Bitzer, though: Republicans and unaffiliated voters are running slightly ahead of their 2016 voting pace. Democrats were running ahead until this weekend but are now running slightly behind. All three groups are well ahead of their 2014 pace. Democrats are the largest voting bloc so far. So far, the mean age of early voters is 59. The entire 7 million-plus population of registered voters has a mean age of 48. Baby Boomers and older requested 68 percent of all early ballots, both via mail and in-person. Women make up 52 percent, in line with their registration percentage.
