With this type of image around Alabama I can see why Space Command stayed in Colorado.

Yeah but Colorado is full of white people, so wouldn’t black representation be less there. Why don’t the democrats help the black people in Huntsville? Alabama A&M has plenty black engineers. So they are going to punish the black people if Alabama for some white folks in Colorado? Not even one HBCU is there.

I'm simply asking for facts.

No. That portion was in response to you thinking the california map is gerrymandered, it isnt. they actually do draw a fair map. If they wanted to gerrymander the state, they absolutely could. Geography in California greatly helps Dems.

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.

The problem with your argument is that the electrical grid in California seems to do fine with electrical cars. The problem has been wildfires and mudslides.

Only hard core partisan Democrats would make that claim.

One district is 51% Black. One is 40% Black. The state is 27% Black. Don't know the details of where everyone lives, but it would be hard to have geographically rational districts with 2 of 7 majority Black. That would be 28.6% of the districts majority Black.

I have doubts that the court is being reasonable. It will be interesting to see what they come up with.

They can handle their business their way and run it up to the SC if they want, this is about Alabama. I'm not worried about what they do... does that attitude sound familiar?

Idk why people post things like this, you are on the internet if you can post on this website. You can find that information. You are purposefully being obtuse and knew your argument had no standing before you posted it.

It's not fine. They have rolling black outs and have to buy energy from other states. They also were putting restrictions on how much electricity each household uses. Also, much of the electricity they buy from other states is generated through coal. The same coal they demonize with the help of Obama.

They also grow a lot of the food you eat. Alabama is a federal welfare taker and gets back a lot more than it puts in to build roads and infrastructure. California gets a lot too, but the state is huge and has a massive population and a GDP larger than many countries... and of course they put in a lot.

7 of 10 most dependant states are Republican. We're number ten. We get $1.80 back for every dollar we put in. Cali gets 65 cents back for every dollar, but sure let's just hoard power and let them burn. That'll teach 'em.

Democratic-leaning blue states tend to be wealthier and pay more to the federal government than they get. In contrast, Republican-leaning red states tend to have less wealth and receive more federal government funds than they pay. In the MoneyGeek rankings, 7 of the 10 most dependent states are considered red states.

God this thread is so amusing

I try to keep out of politics, especially discussions…. But my guy, you haven’t said a single correct statement yet, stop getting your information from Nextdoor and actually read something before you make these idiotic comments

This is all just a ploy / sleight of hand to get us to believe that our votes actually mean anything.

As far as I'm concerned, probably 90% or more of eligible voters in this country need to be disenfranchised.
