    Apparently Democrats aren't computer literate

    "Gerrymandered maps were once part of an unspoken agreement between rivals that pressing for political advantage was, within limits, part of the electoral game. But in recent years Republicans, aided by sophisticated mapmaking software, have given themselves near-unbreakable power across the country."



    Pardon me? After the 2010 Census, the DEMOCRAT state house and senate gerrymandered Arkansas. They put more of the Mississippi counties (the most Democrat counties) into the First District, then ran a corridor from the Fourth District up to Fayetteville to bring the ultra-liberal University voters into that distract. This was called the "Fayetteville Finger."

    Their intention was to keep the First, Second and Fourth Districts Democrat by this gerrymandering.

    Fortunately, it didn't work.

    But once again, we see media bias -- when Republicans do something Democrats have been doing for generations -- with no objections from the media -- it's suddenly a despicable and near-criminal act.

    The dems have been chopping up Congressional districts for their advantage for the last century. When the voters repudiate their communist ideas, the dems go to the courts to retain power. This time, the courts read the Constitution. The dems are busy organizing their own military wing, Antifa, Black Lives Matter, Planned Parenthood, et al. When the voters and the courts turn them down, they will expose their true nature. The dems will only claim to be "Socialists" until they disarm the opposition, "Us". Then they will act like communists. Regards, Clark

      As said before, the whole issue is a joke. People can and will lie for a number of reasons on the citizenship question.

      PROOF of citizenship should be required in order to be counted. It isn't that hard to. Birth certificates should become like paper currency where counterfeiting would become very hard or impossible.

        I thought Vernon didn't like Gerrymanders.

        And if the census question gets put back on this summer, I predict: #LEAVEITBLANK
