First of all, if you thought Mississippi would elect a black man over a racist white candidate, you obviously don’t know much about Mississippi. But now the good news.
In Colorado voters passed Measure Y by 71% to 29%. It sets up a commission of four Dems, four Reeps, and four members who are neither to draw U.S. House district boundaries.
In Michigan voters passed Measure 18-2 with 61% of the vote. It creates a commission of four Democrats, four Reeps, and five members who are neither. It will draw districts for by the House and the state legislature.
In Missouri voters passed Amendment One, providing for a demographer to draw state legislative districts in a manner fair to both major parties.
We are going to make elections fair one state at a time. Every state that moves to fair districting helps to level the playing field.
