WASHINGTON — In reaction to the Supreme Court’s refusal to place limits on extreme partisan gerrymandering, Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee Executive Director Jessica Post released the following statement:
“The Supreme Court’s decision has made one thing clear: The only way we’ll end partisan gerrymandering is by voting Republicans out of power in state legislatures.”
“In 2010, Republicans in state legislatures across the country abused their power to gerrymander maps and rig elections. We’re not going to allow that to happen again.”
“The 2019 and 2020 legislative elections will determine who draws the next decade’s maps. The future of our democracy is at stake and the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee is dedicated to ensuring that future is fair.”
