NC State Supreme Court Throws Out Redistricting
Map Over GOP Gerrymander

Original Article

Posted By: MAGA Might, 2/5/2022 8:01:55 AM

The North Carolina state Supreme Court rejected a congressional district map passed by the state legislature, ruling that the legislature created an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander. The map, passed along party lines, created ten safe seats for Republicans and three safe seats for Democrats, with one competitive district. Democratic officials immediately challenged the map in the Wake County Circuit Court, where Republicans initially won. The plaintiffs were represented by the Elias Law Group, an elections litigation firm founded by prominent Democratic attorney Marc Elias.

Comments:

Meanwhile in New York, the Dems are taking gerrymandering to a whole new level. When are Republicans going to get serious and recognize how this game is played?

The Democrats control the NC Supreme Court. This is evil. The courts are evil. NC voters overwhelmingly approved constitutional amendments banning ‘gay’ marriage and implementing voter IDs, yet the courts overruled the people. Democrats use race to gerrymander and the courts are just fine with it. GOP draws maps and the courts reject them. The PEOPLE elect legislators. The courts are NOT designed to be above then people, but they are. The ‘courts’ are just like the media—rulers and enemies of the people.

Illinois: lost 1 seat this time, new wildly Gerrymandered map…. Change from old map: +2 Democratic-leaning seats, -2 Republican-leaning seats, -1 highly competitive seat. Any Justice system that treats one party different than another is unjust and must be dismissed in the name of Justice.

Just as in 2020, the judges have claimed authority over elections which I cannot see in the Constitution of either the nation or the state.

#1 is right, especially in NC. The NC Supreme Court is about like a court in NY. And the sitting NC Atty General is about like one in NY too. And the RINO infested and controlling bunch in the General Assembly aint any better.

Of course the NC Supreme Court rejected the GOP redistricting. The democrats out number the republicans in the judicial system (4 to 3). Time for NC to take a democrat seat and turn it republican in the next election.

Only Democrats can gerrymander. Wasn't NC one of the states that did heavy gerrymandering to create black districts? The NC State Supreme Court appears to be loaded with corrupt hypocrites.

The very WORST most convoluted, crazy shaped Gerrymandered districts are, and have always been, drawn to create a dem seat...often a "racial" Minority seat. Dems have also long controlled the Legislatures that drew new districts after each census. Rep control of legislatures and Governors mansions, as well as congress itself is a fairly "recent" thing.For 90+ years dems had solid control of most states, and of the congress, often with massive majorities, When Repubs were in majority it was often by slim margins.That all started changing in '94..each succeeding election has brought more Repub seats in legislatures, in Governor races, each midterm with a Dem in the whitehouse has brought YUUUGE repub gains, because the "National Dems" over reach badly every time. Yet still they consider themselves a "Majority", at the state level they are only around 30-40%. Even in Washington they now have the slimmest majorities in History. Current Composition Republicans Democrats Other Legislators (7,383 total) (R)3,980 / 54%(D)3,266/ 45% 137 (Independent, Other or Vacant) Chambers (98 total) (R)61 / 62% (D)37 / 38% Legislatures (49 total) (R)30 / 61% (D)17 / 35% 2 divided legislature State Control (49 total) (R)23 / 46% (D)14 / 29% 12 divided states

#9 Amazing how fast and far LEFT the country has gone while WE have elected so many more Republicans than Leftists. The voters have done what they could for us, The GOP has done what it could TO us, (Still got Obamacare?). Nebraska! It's a COOKS PVI +13 State.... so in their brilliant political wisdom - they decided that's a good time to throw away any partisan advantages. Got to wonder what leftist think tank dreamed that one up and planted the seed in the fertile ground of GOP Dolts. We need to take control of our own party, NOW.

But it is OK for NY to redistrict away of the Republican districts into oblivion. And it was OK for the Dems to challenge the redistricting map prepared by the Republicans in PA on totally specious grounds and have the corrupt Dem PA Supreme Court order that the Dem redistricting map be used instead

When the Democrats gerrymandered the daylights out of the congressional district map when they were in the majority, the North Carolina state Supreme Court did NOTHING! One would hope that the court would act impartially, not with heavy bias for one political party. Sadly, this is not the case.

Opposing mask mandates in schools has quickly become the new hot take of the week in America’s leading legacy newsrooms. The New York Times, The Washington Post, NPR and The Atlantic all ran pieces this week arguing that mask mandates for schoolchildren are unnecessary, harmful, or both. NPR’s piece was more of the reporting variety, while the others were strictly opinion, but all of them shared a common thread: newly advocating for a position that some, particularly conservatives, have been calling for for months and years. On Monday, the Washington Post published an op-ed from three medical experts calling to end mask mandates in schools. The Atlantic joined in on Tuesday.

Once upon a time in 60’s and 70’s America, public service commercials about *Radio Free Europe” filled our television airwaves. The ads appealed for help for people who were living “behind the Iron Curtain.” Here’s one of the most iconic commercials from that time. If you were a kid living in America, you couldn’t imagine how any country could stifle news and information, crush dissent or persecute dissenters simply for thinking for themselves. Yet, in 2022 America we are seeing a tacit acceptance of exactly that. Did you think you’d ever live to see the day when America would side with Communist Cuba over freedom-fighters who finally stood up

During the course of the madness that promoted “defunding” or abolishing the police, there was an emphasis placed on replacing police in some circumstances with “community safety” workers who would supposedly act as unarmed “violence interrupters” and reduce the number of lethal use of force incidents by police officers. In Baltimore, Maryland’s violent gang territories, an existing organization known as the “Safe Streets Program” gained a lot of attention and municipal support in this effort. The goal of the program is to deploy former gang members (or “former”) into areas controlled by the gangs to negotiate nonviolent resolutions to conflicts.

Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm blamed a “clerical error” for serial violations of the law that governs the reporting of securities transactions, according to Insider. Granholm violated the STOCK Act nine times in 2021, Insider first reported Thursday. The secretary filed two reports with the Office of Government Ethics on Dec. 15 and 16 detailing nine stock transactions that she conducted between April 30 and Oct. 26. All nine transactions fall outside the 45 day window that the STOCK Act mandates government officials report their trades within, according to Insider. “This was an inadvertent clerical oversight on reporting stock sales that ethics officials previously determined did not pose a conflict

The US State Department is waiving sanctions on Iran's civilian nuclear program in the hope that Tehran will return to the 2015 nuclear agreement, a senior official said Friday.As U.S. negotiators head back to Vienna for what could be a make-or-break session, Secretary of State Antony Blinken signed several sanctions waivers related to Iran's civilian nuclear activities. The move reverses the Trump administration's decision to rescind them. The resumption of the waiver, ended by Trump in 2020, 'would be essential to ensuring Iran's swift compliance' if a new deal on controlling Tehran's nuclear program can be reached in talks in Vienna, the State Department official said

Previous research has been criticised for only looking at vitamin D levels when the Covid patient was already in hospital.(Snip)To overcome this limitation, in their latest study, researchers from Bar Ilan University and the Galilee Medical Center looked at patient records up to two years before
