1. Counter redistricting is counter punching the Texas punches

I will vote yes April 21 for the counter re-districting plan.
I received a flyer from a republican outfit urging 'vote no' which harped about the unfairness of it all, which included testimonials from Obama, Virginia governor Abigail Spanberger, and another Virginia politician, all three condemning gerrymandering - as if they were voting no!
Yes of course they do oppose gerrymandering, but they are NOT condemning what we do in response to Texas firing the first shot last year.
Punching people hard is usually against the law, and counter punching is acceptable, which is what Virginia democrats are doing. Counter gerrymandering, counter rigging.
