Without judgement we present an interesting theory . . .
What if MAGA Missouri Redistricting backfires?!?!
We've shared this same idea months ago but there's a caveat . . .
Missouri hasn't shown any real sign of leaning back toward Democratic Party voting.
Even worse . . .
This is the Missouri Democrats we're talking about here . . . So, imagine the worst possible candidates and silliest platform geared toward working-class voters.
C'mon man . . . Last time around, with a great chance at winning the Governor's mansion, they choked and ran on abortion and roller derby.
So we'll share the idea . . . But with a grain of salt . . . Check-it:
"In American politics, we’re familiar with gerrymandering — when a political party redraws district lines to gain an electoral advantage.
"But what happens when that plan backfires and accidentally benefits the opposing party instead? Enter what politicos call the “dummymander.”
"Republicans in several states, including Missouri, followed President Donald Trump’s orders to redraw congressional maps to protect the GOP’s House majority. To do it, they carved up blue seats and dispersed those Democratic voters into deep red districts, making many hue more towards pink.
"Earlier this month, Democrats scored massive wins across the country — seen by many as a rebuke of the president and the prelude to a blue wave in next year’s midterms. Could that wave be large enough to turn carefully constructed GOP maps into a dummymander?"
