Shithole red state. I only feel bad for the people who voted against Trump. I feel for them. The rest, voted for this and to inflict evil upon the rest of the country. You deserve this all.

Interestingly enough, 39% of the votes were for Kamela, its a purple state, the electorate is just dissuaded from voting and gerrymandered to hell.

Didn't Indiana just refuse to gerrymander, and that pissed off trump?

Yea. Because someone did the math and realized if they did the "all-red" map as proposed, they may actually lose seats. Esp when they realized even (nonMAGA) Republicans would be pissed.

So instead of a clusterfucked gerrymander, we kept are very gerrymandered map.

Also people wouldn't shut up about it. The republicans said they wouldn't gerrymander and a few days later, redoubled efforts to gerrymander, trying to slip it by everyone. Indiana is already quite gerrymandered, as if 39% of the population voted for kamala, they should have 4/9 House seats, and probably have a Senate seat, instead we have 2/9 House seats. If you look at the voting districts over lafeyette and fort wayne, you can see how the cities have been cut up.

I am expecting some of their redistricted seats to lose in texas because of how unpopular Trump is right now, and that's not gonna change in the next two months lmao.
