EXCERPT:

HUME: “No, it certainly doesn’t. And the one thing this is not an effort to do is to ensure fairness. It is done to ensure that Democrats have many more seats than they do now. And it’s an interesting process, Bret, because Virginia, unlike other states, actually had a system set up to take redistricting out of the hands of the politicians and it gave it to a bipartisan commission split down the middle between the two parties so that there wouldn’t be any of this sort of monkey shines. But states that didn’t have such commission, such as Texas, or such regulations, were redistricting between the 10-year cycles that are normally customary for congressional redistricting.”
