    Interesting! To point #1, I looked it up and apparently the legality of partisan gerrymandering (i.e. by likely vote as opposed to race) varies by state. I had thought it was completely illegal. Thanks for fact-checking me.

      All good. It’s such a blatant violation of what voting should be that it seems like a no-brainer for it to be illegal. And yet, just like bribing politicians, it’s fuckin legal for some fuckin reason…
