Gerrymandering explained.

Here is how it works. Nice little video every American needs to watch. It effects everything. It's why Republicans can't get enough of their votes to do anything. It's why the GOP and the government as a result is dysfunctional.

They actually do. The elections that put the people into office that drew the lines had consequences. The consequences were the redrawn districts.

You're really fucking stupid if you don't realize that.

No need to thank me for your education today. You ever stop and think that if you didn't watch some bozo from England with an English degree trying to teach you about American politics, you might be a bit more informed. Seriously, you're as stupid as a pile of shit.

You can't teach the Gerry hater a new trick. That's why he will never graduate from any successful college or Ivy league school. Sentenced to being poor the rest of his life and trolling Gerry on FFXU.

Again, you're getting your information from an British imbecile. He has no basis of knowledge concerning our system of government. Elections always matter. You need to win the right ones to get the privilege to draw the district lines.

The elections for state houses is HUGE in the next two years.

You have no point. You're as dumb as a box of rocks. You simply engage in confirmation bias. That is really a stupid way to go through life.

How can you win to draw the district lines if the district lines have been drawn in a way to keep you from winning?

What came first, the chicken or the egg?

That's what you need to figure out. The Republicans did it leading up to 2010 when many idiots (like you) said the party was finished.

> What came first, the chicken or the egg?

Winning is what came first. You'll never know what that feels like.

You're just SO stupid. I mean really dumb. You have no clue what you are talking about. You just let bullshit emanate from your keyboard at a frantic pace.

WTF are you smoking? You've been eviscerated here. Completely destroyed. Don't worry, I will always be in a superior position compared to you.

Disenfranchisement? You're a fucking moron. And yes, I would love to disenfranchise a moron like you. There should be a poll test and you'd never pass it.

This is some alien liberal "comedian" trying to pass himself off as knowledgeable but instead acting as a propaganda outlet for the DNC.

He does not even have his history on the thing correct. It does originate with Elbridge Gerry, allright, and he did pronounce his name with a hard "G". It has little to do with politics and more with personal animosity that Gerry, from Marblehead, had toward residents of Salem. Salem was the County Seat of Essex County. It had been since colonial times. Gerry separated Salem from Essex County and moved the County Seat to Newburyport.

After they ran Gerry out of office, they moved the County Seat back to Salem and tried to set the boundaries back the way that they were. Of course, Gerry had almost all of the boundary stones uprooted, so it was difficult. There are reams of testimony from people about where the boundaries should have been (much like the Monte Cassino depositions from the Middle Ages in Italy). Still, they never could get it back quite right.

Essex County feels the effects of Gerry's miscreance to this day. While the State, County and City of Salem Courts are In Salem in the same place that they have been since colonial times (except for Gerry's tenure, of course. Also, the building is not the same, but it was always in the same place), the Federal Courts for Essex County are STILL in Newburyport. The boundaries are STILL a mess, and it is obvious to anyone who looks at them. You can go straight down more than a few roads in Essex County and leave, re-enter, leave, re-enter the same town.

My parents' house is in Ipswich. Their neighbour's is in Topsfield. They are both on the same pond. One creek that might have been a boundary is far toward the ocean. Another creek that might have been a boundary is two lots into Topsfield. Odds are that almost all of that pond was originally in Topsfield as were the properties on it. The road that is now Route 1 might, in fact, have been the boundary as well. No one is too sure, any more.

I am originally from Essex County, so I know my subject. If you want to learn more about it, the next time that you are in Salem, go to the Peabody Museum. You must pay to get in, but if you want to learn about Essex County, it is the place to go.

His grasp on English is poor at best, so he can't tell when he's been made to look like a fool.

Which would explain why he still posts here, after being made a fool of so many times and being in the right so very little.
