    Which in this case guarantees everything ends up in the courts based on the proposal itself.

    Have the so-called non-partisan team draw up five different redistricting plans. Put it to the voters who may vote for their top choice. The top two plans go into a run-off. The winning plan is the redistricting plan for the State. Disallow any court oversight.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Maybe the VA GOP should just promise everyone free money and abortions and lie like hell to the voters. It works n CA, NY, MA...

    All current districting should be scrapped and the maps redrawn by a computer program that only takes into account an area's population density and distribution - nothing else, for any reason.
    Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.” - Robert E. Howard
