Gerrymandered congressional districts, and then using these gerrymandered districts to sabotage the electoral vote counting -- we can only hope these strategies backfire on the GOP.; September 1, 2015 at 11:13 AM

Tom Harper said...: Erik: Yup, that's always been the Right's big advantage. Conservatives vote come hell or high water or rain or an earthquake; liberals might vote if they remember, if they aren't too stoned, if there isn't something good on TV...
