Texas is stealing 5 seats—more red states are lining up. California can’t carry this fight alone. We need more blue states stepping up on redistricting. If you live in a blue state, contact your governor now Here’s why 📌CA: Up to 5 seats possible 📌IL: 0–1 seat possible 📌NY: 1–2 seats possible

New York could gerrymander another three (D) seats if they wanted to be super aggressive about it. The map that the Court of Appeals struck prior to the 2022 midterms was 22-4, favoring Dems, and the current delegation is 19-7.

In Ohio it was passed for Republicans Independent and Democrats to redistrict this time. A nonpartisan committee. After the Trump GOP they just threw out the vote on the ballot. Only the GOP drew the new maps. Democrats are suing. Special elections didn't happen for local and state issues.

This problem that’s being created proves that gerrymandering is not an effective way to represent people. Gerrymandering has always been away for politicians to choose their voters rather than voters to choose their politicians.

It is important that we share accurate information. Democratic states have spent years making it harder to gerrymander as GOP states have been making it easier. It is reporting that New York, for instance, wouldn’t have the time to do all the steps necessary before the ‘26 election.

I would divide a congressional district and ADD another seat. GOP is not playing by rules so we have got to get creative, don't really care how it's done just that we devise something. YOU got any suggestions?

Congress determines how many Congressional representatives each state gets based on the Census, states can't add seats, NM has 3, VT has 1, TX is redrawing the districts, not adding more seats.

Nope @april-aries.bsky.social

NM would be a tight squeeze. We are all blue now…but my district is quite purple (I’m shocked it’s not red actually).

No, not Taos area. It’s beautiful there! I’m in the not beautiful part of central NM haha. Vasquez’s district. But I think with a complete re-draw, we can make 4 effective districts. Why is Bernalillo Cty. split in 2?!?!

You can't add seats, you have 3 seats. Want more seats you need more people to move to NM, like by 2 million more people.

It's kind of all for nothing because if the blue states manage to pull it off, he will just find a way to suspend the elections or, at the very least, send his ICE goons to interfere with them.

They may redraw the districts, but it still requires votes to win Time to make a lot of noise & reach the voters within these redrawn districts -- do they want to keep their freedoms & be seen as people or will they just be pawns in Donald Trump's game of checkers? (he's too dumb for chess)

New York is following its state constitution when it comes to redistricting, and the process can’t be completed until 2027 for use in the 2028 elections. Changing the map for the 2026 midterms would require breaking the law, so don’t expect any changes in New York before then.

Its why 2024 was the last free and fair election America will have. By 2028, its done. America is finished as a democracy, and is now sliding headlong towards dictatorship. You either stand up to that, or accept it.

So, are you suggesting that the New York Governor and legislature should ignore the state constitution’s process to dissolve gerrymandering and just say they aren't going to follow the constitional process? I’m just trying to understand what point you’re making.

Yes. They have overperformed in about 3 dzn races nationwide so far. Democrats should not take their foot off the gas.

Agree 100 percent, but the media is totally missing the swing districts in BLUE and RED STATES that had gone for Trump, and Trump only. Normally up for grabs or blue. If we work hard, these will be BLUE next year. Right, Don Bacon?

Yes, the ground game. Mass protests, people in the streets. I am addicted to reading all the good content behind the headlines, the massive content in the digital NYT on any given morning. The news section cowers and chisels around the edges of the obvious. I can ignore it or I can cancel.

Aside from the protesting there needs to be a concerted effort to get anti-regime candidates elected. That’s going to require grassroots door-to-door efforts. The media is not going to assist. At all. We also have to collectively get over the desire to have ‘perfect’ candidates.

Not letting perfect be the enemy of good is going to be extremely difficult for many people, and a big mess is going to be made in the process. But it will be a fairly easy to repair mess, vs what happens if the fascists consolidate power.
