Do you think 2010 will be the same as 1994?

In Glenn Becks book, there's a chapter on redistricting. It's pretty sick the extent these POS politicians have gone to stack the deck in favor of incumbents. He presents several "ward" maps and it's truly ridiculous.
We will need an overwhelming ground swell majority to prevail in some of these districts. What they did here is, IMHO,.... Criminal.

Well if the victors have an R or a D next to their name they'll have to prove to me they are constitutionalists otherwise it'll just be more of the same.

You make a very good point about gerrymandering. It's a huge problem.

A majority can easily be usurped by dividing it up and splitting the residents of that district between surrounding minority districts. This has been well-documented in many states.

I hope so. But hope is not a course of action. People need to get out and vote.
