Supreme Court ditches fairness, voter rights and the Constitution in gerrymandering ruling
Supreme Court ditches fairness, voter rights and the Constitution in gerrymandering ruling
Karen Hobert Flynn, Opinion contributor Published 11:43 a.m. ET June 27, 2019
The ruling means politicians are free to maximize party power and skew elections with few constraints. But citizens will keep fighting in the states.
When voters go to the polls, they deserve to have their votes count equally. But for decades, politicians have rigged districts to boost the votes of their friends and dilute the votes of their enemies. Now a narrow majority of Supreme Court justices has given its blessing to blatant partisan gerrymandering where politicians choose their voters instead of voters choosing their politicians.
Let’s be clear, the fight to end partisan gerrymandering does not end with the Supreme Court's 5-4 ruling on Thursday. It will continue in state courts, at the polls, in legislatures and in the streets as citizens fight to make their voices heard and to end partisan gerrymandering that robs them of representation.
The court greenlighted two blatant partisan gerrymanders — one by Republicans in North Carolina (Rucho v. Common Cause) and one by Democrats in Maryland (Lamone v. Benisek) — despite the fact that hundreds of thousands in the two states have been stripped of their voice in Washington by power-hungry politicians.
Supreme Court will allow abuse
Several justices, including those who voted with the majority, acknowledged in oral arguments the damage done to our democracy by extreme partisan gerrymandering, and three lower courts have found clear legal standards to evaluate allegations of partisan gerrymandering. Yet the five justices in the majority concluded that the court could not set a constitutional standard to prevent partisan gerrymandering.

Press: Democrats form circular firing squad
Tuesday, June 25, 2019Press: Democrats form circular firing squad
Press: Democrats form circular firing squad BY BILL PRESS, Democrats, get ahold of yourselves. It’s still early in this silly political season, but you’ve already gone off the deep end. There are so many presidential candidates, some of whom have no idea why they’re running, but all of whom are so desperate to get any attention whatsoever and so hungry for a headline, they’ll seize any opportunity to invent a phony excuse to stab another Democrat in the back. With the willing help of the breathless, clueless, political media. Witness the latest tempest surrounding Joe Biden, whom 22 fellow Democratic candidates piled on top of, accusing him of being, if not outright racist, then at least insensitive, unprincipled, old-fashioned, or just plain old. And cable TV abetted their cause with endless stories about Joe’s latest gaffe. This whole flap is total rubbish. And any candidate who took part in it, or any reporter who relished inflating it, should lose his or her political license. Consider for a moment, with no attempt to demonize or lionize him, what Biden said. To illustrate the point that, unlike the current breed of senators, he knew how to get things done, even in tough times, Biden told supporters at a New York fundraiser that back in his Senate days, on some issues, he even worked with some of the worst, including noted segregationists James Eastland and Herman Talmadge. And for that Biden is condemned as a closet racist himself? Among others, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) said Biden “doesn’t understand the history of our country.” New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio accused Biden of “longing for the good old days of ‘civility.’ ” Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) also piled on. Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) demanded that Biden issue an apology. Apologize for what? Give me a break. First of all, Biden was not alone in seeking votes of outright segregationists on certain issues. So did Teddy Kennedy, Birch Bayh, Chris Dodd, Paul Simon, and other Senate liberal giants. And they did so, as Biden later clarified, even though “We in fact detested what they stood for in terms of segregation and all the rest.” So did President Lyndon Johnson. In fact, one of the greatest political stories of the 20th century is how Johnson, himself a former pro-segregation Southern Democrat, strong-armed Georgia’s Richard Russell and other racist Southern Democrats to secure passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act. The fact is, there would be no Voting Rights Act if Johnson had refused to deal with Russell. And there would have been no 25-year renewal of the Voting Rights Act in 1982 if Biden and Kennedy had been unwilling to work with Eastland and Talmadge. You have to wonder. What would Harris and Booker prefer? Are they suggesting that, given the opportunity to pass the most important piece of civil rights legislation, Biden and others should have said: We are so perfect, we will never work with, nor will we ever seek or accept the votes of, anybody who doesn’t agree with us 100 percent? We’ll wait till Alabama and Mississippi elect somebody we agree with 100 percent? That may make the purists feel good, but it’s a recipe for political disaster. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not supporting Joe Biden for president. At the moment, I’m not supporting anybody. Who knows? Biden may be the nominee, he may not. But I do know this: What Americans want to hear from every Democratic candidate is what their plans are to move this country forward and how they plan to beat Donald Trump. They’re wasting their time taking cheap shots at Biden, or anybody else. Press is host of “The Bill Press Pod.” His Twitter handle is @BillPressPod.

William Barr Is Cornered by Bob Mueller
The attorney general’s memo apparently did not capture the substance of the Mueller probe’s findings. Might Barr have perjured himself?
