@Alejandro_SocEU @el_pais If you think that Conte is more on the left than her you really don’t know italian politics

@el_pais Por qué promocionáis a Renzi 2.0. Los líderes de la oposición son Schlein y Conte, no Salis. Salis es la candidata del sistema que quiere una izquierda tibia.

Tiene buena imagen, un aire pop, habla claro y da la sensación de llegar a un espectro más amplio que el de la izquierda, capaz de robarle votos a Meloni. Es la alcaldesa de Génova y excampeona de lanzamiento de martillo, Silvia Salis social.elpais.com/kzcq9

That is completely nonsensical logic, even by gerrymander standards
Will Ainsworth@willainsworthAL
Alabama Republicans control both U.S. Senate seats, all constitutional offices, every state judgeship, and have legislative supermajorities, so it makes perfect sense for us to hold every congressional seat, too. We are bright red state, and our congressional map should show it.
English
@_fat_ugly_rat_ Or mandate that districts must be drawn within a single county if possible, e.g., 3 within dallas county and 2 within tarrant
English
An effective way you could reduce gerrymandering is that for metros >1.5M people at least 80% of the population in that urban area has to be in districts that are contained entirely within that metro.
For example, DFW has only has 30.5% of its population in DFW only districts!

@BlueOrionPrime @baseballot Maybe run better candidates in ME-2 that was Trump +9

@baseballot New England has 40% GOP voters and 0 house seats.
Welcome to the new world where the GOP finally gets a level playing field

The Supreme Court did not find any maps unconstitutional other than Louisiana’s.
Max Cohen@maxpcohen
Redistricting watch: Speaker Johnson backs the idea of red states redrawing House maps this cycle after Callais. “All states that have unconstitutional maps should look at that very carefully and I think they should do it before the midterms”

@DrMaximus_NYC @DRAFIGO9 @DeliaRamirezFan It holds in 2024 that is like the floor for Ds in Minnesota
English
English
17-0 in Illinois, 8-0 in Maryland (after that bozo Ferguson gets axed), 8-0 in Colorado, 25-1 in NY, 6-2 in Minnesota
English
@MappingFL Exactly, in terms of gerrymandering Rs are almost at their ceiling, Ds have basically just started (Maryland, Colorado, Minnesota, NY, NJ, WA can be easily gerrymandered, even California can be much more extreme)
English
Btw I wannabe clear. I know the democrats can counter the Republican maps in the south
I’m not worried about partisanship. I’m a true believer in racial protections in red and blue states.
So I’m looking at this through a racial justice lens. Not a partisan lens.
Florida Data Geek ✝️🇺🇦🇬🇱@MappingFL
So we all agree the Callais ruling is bad. But we don’t agree on how bad. But we all agree it’s not the worst possible outcome Time will tell Btw I’ll block anyone celebrating the ruling. So if you want to follow me keep that in mind.

@RedistrictNet @MappingFL I believe that new orleans and memphis seats might be safe for now. Plus, its hard to further gerrymander atlanta. I would at least expect Alabama and Louisiana to go back to their 6-1 and 5-1 maps. Not sure abt MS and SC
English
While the court did not strike down Sect. 2, it appears have have drastically reduced it’s usefulness by changing the standards to prove violations of the Gingles prongs, making it far more difficult (must control for partisanship)
SCOTUSblog@SCOTUSblog
The 2nd opinion is in Louisiana v. Callais, on race-based discrimination and the Voting Rights Act. A 6-3 court held that Louisiana's map creating a 2nd majority-black district was "an unconstitutional racial gerrymander." Court didn't strike Section 2. supremecourt.gov/opinions/25pdf…

È inutile chiamare fascisti quelli che hanno profanato il #25aprile a Milano, a Roma, a Bologna.
Non lo sono.
È gente di sinistra.
Di una sinistra reazionaria, settaria, nostalgica che c’è sempre stata. Il @pdnetwork è nato anche per liberarsene e oggi dovrebbe farsi sentire

@JohnCranney @Nate_Cohn @secretsandlaws To be fair, NH, Maine, RI, and Montana have some of the “fairest” maps. And there’s no way you can create even competitive districts in Idaho or Hawaii
English
@Nate_Cohn @secretsandlaws Here’s a question, if a State only has 2 seats should they both go to the majority party or 1 to majority and 1 to minority or 1 to majority and the other approx 50-50. Currently those states all give both to the majority, whether R or D.

Four Democratic House members have died in office since Jan 2025.
David Scott, 80.
Gerry Connolly, 75.
Raúl Grijalva, 77.
Sylvester Turner, 70.
We have to stop electing people this old. This is not okay. What are we doing.

Thank you McDonalds for hiring those facing federal job losses. Every family deserves to earn a living and that’s why we raised our minimum wage in Virginia to $15 an hour.

@umichvoter They should have left out the Liberty University precinct

Mapmakers should have been bit less sloppy with VA-06
But overall it's a great map and you really can't complain much. It's very very aggressive in NOVA
English
@merkblack00702 @DjsokeSpeaking Yeah but its the only place in NOVA whose % compared to 2025 is dropping in the last update
English
@andreacerrato2 @DjsokeSpeaking It's today, so Election Day. Tehre is also Early Vote, Absentee

When Fairfax updates for 3, Dems probably want to see it at like at least 15% turnout for the day. That would take it to about 75% of November, and show a clear trend of stronger later turnout.
