As readers of this blog know, I’m a firm proponent of nonpartisan redistricting. Gerrymandering “games”–played by both parties–simply allow incumbents to choose their voters, rather than the other way around. So I have been inclined to be supportive of Todd Rokita’s traveling road show, even while somewhat suspicious of his motives. Rokita, after all, was the driving force behind the Voter ID law; a law that was a naked attempt to suppress the votes of elderly and minority voters who vote disproportionately Democratic.
A jaundiced look at the world we live in.
