nah this is actually a pretty big problem that republicans are guilty of
No I won't.

This is called gerrymandering, and we don't defend this.

No one will defend this except for maybe 80 year old Klansmen.
>>59774517
Stupid people don't know anything about voting districts though
I won't defend this. I don't want to think about how much money is wasted paying people to figure this shit out.

Politicians should be able to choose who they want to represent and who they want supporting them.

this is literally the reason illinois is a blue state m8
>>59774685
It wasn't always, literally why republicans tried to play this in their favor
>>59774452
Democrats are just as guilty of gerrymandering, they just control fewer state legislatures so you don't hear about it as much.
Niggers shouldn't vote
>>59774390
DELETE THIS
>>59774737
in the south its the republicans (specially texas) but here in chicago weve been gerrymandered to shit by the democrats.
>>59774818
That district is the democratic district in the nation. It exists so republicans can have more districts. See >>59774660
>>59774849
illinois is a blue state you utter retard
>only duh ebul publicunts kn steeyul lecshuns
both parties are just as guilty, just the republicans have more opportunities to do it.
No they won't, it's dumb as fuck and they have every right to be mad about it
>>59774893
The districts were changed in 1933 after the democrats took over Illinois in 1932 to try and stop them from keeping it. Literally takes 1 minute to look this shit up.

It's like......what can you do?
>>59774390
Republicans hate democracy
>>59774390
The abuse of such a system is wrong, but at the same time what would you prefer? I don't know of a system that cannot be abused and thus would not be abused. The two party system itself is a fucked up institution here and I'd rather see that gone desu senpai, but it seems we're going in the opposite direction though so I suppose I'll embrace the oligarchy.

literally nothing compared to what northern ireland used to be like

>>59774527
>myth
Fact
>>59775481
trump is also a criminal
>>59775394
who controls most state legislators?
>>59775196
>what can you do?
Illegalize gerrymandering and make the districts basic sguares or some shit lel
>>59775196
we wouldn't have this problem if there was only one house in our legislative branch
>>59775821
There are two houses so they can keep each other in check, especially the senate on congress.
>>59775618
>trump is also a criminal
Proofs?
>>59775196
How about not having a medieval system of elector counts choosing a new emperor and instead just count the total number of votes?
