Dems May Retaliate by Going After States in the Northeast: Phil Mattingly on Republicans Redistricting in 4 Other States

EXCERPT:

MATTINGLY: “Interestingly enough, House Democrats, when they were in power, made trying to stop gerrymandering a central component of their good governance legislation, and have now started to reverse on that, which is a fascinating element that I think is very telling of the times of this Trump presidency and of how Democrats are trying to fight it. But I think, again, I don’t know how this ends. I don’t think it ends well, and I don’t mean that in a political sense. I just mean there is no reason for republic — if Republicans are going to look at this and say, well fine, then we’ll do Florida and Mississippi and Arkansas and Alabama. I’m just — I don’t know that that’s actually what’s coming next, but that’s what they say. Then every Democrat says, all right, fine, then we’re going to do all the states in the northeast and anything out west that we have as well. And like — it just seems like a spiral where you’re not ever addressing what happened with the floods or what happens in governance.”
