Ronny Jackson's Gerrymandered District
If you drive from 1 corner to another it will take over 6hr and 45 minutes and is about 450 miles long. Takes a lot of empty red counties to offset liberal voting Denton, Tx.

"But we gave you District 35! So you see, FAIR AND BALANCED!"

And there are probably less people than live in my old neighborhood to boot. (NRH/HEB)

Ronnie Jackson is a raging alcoholic and medical hack.

450 miles ≈ 724 kilometres

I'm a fan of splitline districting.

Just like gym jordan, they can't win if it's level.

Yes because the people in that section of Dallas are exactly the same as those in that top half of Texas because that makes complete sense why it needed to basically akira crawl over to Dallas to inject some moron into the blue city

You could point to every state with such a district

Reminder, Ronny Jackson is the mean drunk, pill pusher, former White House doctor, and insurrectionist who said Trump weighed 239 pounds. Ronny had a run-in with the police in July. https://twitter.com/randydsmith/status/1691568369445503295?s=20

I've met him several times socially & he always insists "Call me Rhonda, please..".

1. There is something missing in this story. If he identified himself as a physician, why would there be a problem?

His recent video where he yelled at the police calling them names was while he was drunk at a rodeo and a kid collapsed in a medical episode. Once the police showed up they told him to back off and he refused to the point that they handcuffed him. One of his attempts to treat the child was by shoving a gum drop in his mouth (never mind that many gums are sugar free now). What was his second method of treatment? Shoving a sandwich down their throat?

That's such bs, I'm 230lb and skinny as fuck.

Normal Texas Gerrymandering from a party that has been in power for decades: https://www.texasmonthly.com/news-politics/texas-gerrymandering-2021/ Get out and vote.

All that madness in city centers, and they still had to kill mail voting too. It feels like it shouldn't take much to break the GOP's hold on this state if they have to work so hard to maintain control. Give Dems a Census cycle to redraw borders sanely, and give us some federal voting protection legislation, and the GOP could lose TX for a generation.

And if the democrats ever do win, they will cry that there was fraud because they have set up the game to only win. All it would take is for more people to get out and vote. I recently started to vote so I was not part of the solution for a long time. I also know republicans who say that voting now is pointless and I don't correct them because they are part of the problem.

Remember that to conspiracy theorists, there are only two kinds of evidence: evidence you're right, and evidence that it goes even deeper than you thought. There will never be any way to convince Q/MAGA voters that a loss was legitimate. Just keep voting.
