I know Michigan was having similar issues with a citizens commission now drawing their maps. The Ohio Supreme Court rejected the state legislature maps on multiple occasions (at least when Maureen O'Connor was the Chief Justice). When she retired because of an age limit, the Ohio Supreme Court suddenly had no trouble accepting maps that were too Republican-friendly. And O'Connor wasn't a Democrat either; she was a Republican who simply had a more neutral strike zone.Quote:

To me, I think 2026 will be more telling when Mike DeWine is term limited as governor. Will Ohio go for another DeWine clone who actually acts responsibly or elect a Trump clone (i.e. Vivek Ramaswany) who's just full of hot air?
Before Biden dropped out, I didn't see any way that Trump would not win the election.
Then I went to think that he'd probably win, that that Kamala had a chance.
After the debate, I thought Kamala would win, and even if she had to sweat a little bit, it would only be a little bit.
I'm now back to thinking Trump will almost assuredly win, and while Kamala may still have a bit of a chance, I think the chances of a blowout in favor of Trump are more likely than Kamala Harris winning at all.
And, yes. I seem to flipflop more than most actual politicians do.
The fact that people will vote for him, is the biggest grift of all..Quote:

3) and, it doesn’t even make any sense to try and convince people that Dems can control the weather!! I mean, as scary as it is to do this, let’s just suppose that the Dems could do this. How is it supposed to convince anyone NOT to vote for them! I mean, holy shit!! Anyone that knows how to control the weather has certainly got my vote!!
