Iconoclast: Dems’ Gerrymander Hypocrisy
Cheers by President Biden and other Democrats for a federal ruling tossing out North Carolina’s pro-Republican gerrymander “required an impressive act of myopia to avoid noting that Democrats have engaged in raw gerrymandering in various states, too,” thunders Jonathan Turley at The Hill. E.g., New York’s map is designed to add four Democratic House seats and “guarantee the reelection of Rep. Jerry Nadler,” whose Judiciary Committee “has held hearings on the evil of — you guessed it — gerrymandering.” In short, “we are left, yet again, with a gang of arsonists espousing fire safety in our political system.”
