“… We’re also gonna be filing a lawsuit in blue slipping …”
 

That might be exceptionally difficult to do. Maryland has been gerrymandering for a good while…….to-date, they haven’t figured out how to get rid of that one annoying Republican district while keeping the Democratic seats SOLIDLY blue.

No House member wants to be in a 52-48 district.
 

Republicans eye Kansas and Nebraska to draw more House seats​



“…
  • Three Republicans currently represent Nebraska in the House. But Democrats are favored to pick up one seat in 2026, with the retirement of Rep. Don Bacon from the Omaha-based district. Republicans want to thwart those plans.
  • In neighboring Kansas, a Trump +16 state that has a Democratic governor, there are early conversations about how to gerrymander away the one Democratic House seat.…”

“…
  • The Indiana Legislature is poised to approve a map that will include two more GOP-leaning House districts this week if it is called into special session, as is widely expected, this fall. Democrats currently hold two of the state's nine House seats.
… Missouri is up next, with its Legislature moving toward giving Republicans one more likely seat. …

  • In Ohio, Republicans are eyeing either two or three seats.
  • Florida is expected to draw anywhere from three to five likely GOP seats next year….”
 

Maryland Dems may redraw map as redistricting battle rages​

Democrats are inching toward a mid-decade redistricting in Maryland, one of the few blue states with the ability to counter Republicans’ gerrymandering spree.

Maryland’s eight-member congressional delegation is almost entirely Democratic, save for GOP Rep. Andy Harris on the state’s Eastern Shore. The Democratic members plan to meet in the next few weeks to discuss a push for a new map. Several of them have already signaled support for a plan that would target Harris’ seat.

 

Love how Berger and the rest of the Republican ass clowns in the NCGA have time for these undemocratic shenanigans in service of Dear Leader but haven't been able to pass an annual state budget on time for several years now, leaving state programs underfunded and teachers, law enforcement, and other state employees without COL raises for months. The September legislative window ended yesterday and still no budget, so the state will be waiting at least another month 🙄

Passing annual state budget and doing the actual work needed to run North Carolina are nothing but distractions to Republicans elected to "own the Democrats" and "stick it to the big cities" who actually fund the operation of the North Carolina government. In February, 2025, it was projected that North Carolina would have a $544M surplus for the current fiscal year. But Hurricane Helene has reduced North Carolina's "rainy day" fund from $4.75 billion to $3.6 billion.
