What do you call it in states like California and New York where the same thing is going on except by the Democrats?

Well, then why is north central Alabama so poor ?

California has a non partisan commission that draws pretty fair maps, and some would even argue they favor Republicans.

Yeah, and pigs can fly. Side note California is also banning the sale of all gas-powered vehicles and other equipment like lawn mowers etc, including big trucks. How are they going to get their products? The power grid cannot achieve that.

Sale of =/= use of

so people with gas cars, gas mowers can still use them , or they can buy them in another state , or they can buy one slightly used in California.

I'm simply asking for facts. A county where I can see your point.

I don't but seeing how many people in the south seem to want to go the way of Cailfornia, I am just making people aware.

Maybe because Alabama politics and politicians suck. Look at Tommy Tuberville.

They do suck, but that's literally every politician in America. The politicians in Alabama are not as bad as some of other states like California there is a mass exodus there. Extremely high crime and homelessness. Democrats will do anything to get you emotional to give them power. You have the privilege to talk about Alabama. Its fake outrage and privilege. Tommy Tuberville has not done nothing to hurt your quality of life.


Old lady was beat with her own cane in NY at train station for over 50 times. That ain't happening where you are.
