    It’s a lot of things, Stantis, but ‘stupid’ is not one of those things.

    For the 2000 elections, there was a massive amount of Republican dark money — led by the Koch Brothers — that was poured into state elections so that Republicans won many state legislatures. With those wins, they successfully gerrymandered districts and exerted minority control over many states and the House.

    That strategy was paired with nationwide attempts to suppress votes and voters who are likely to vote Democratic many of which were successful enough to affect elections.

    So far, the damage is both severe and permanent.

    Whenever Trumpites know they’re going to lose a district,they redraw it.

    conservatives will do anything to cheat in an election. This morning the conservative majority Supreme Court packed by tRump overturned to lower court’s rulings an purging voter rolls in Virginia. The Law specifically states that voter rolls cannot be purged within 90 days of an election. I remember when the Supreme Court enforced the Law.

    “The Washington Post has been rocked by a tidal wave of cancellations from digital subscribers and a series of resignations from columnists, as the paper grapples with the fallout of owner Jeff Bezos’s decision to block an endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris for president.

    More than 200,000 people had canceled their digital subscriptions by midday Monday, according to two people at the paper with knowledge of internal matters. Not all cancellations take effect immediately. Still, the figure represents about 8% of the paper’s paid circulation of 2.5 million subscribers, which includes print as well. The number of cancellations continued to grow Monday afternoon.

    A corporate spokesperson declined to comment, citing The Washington Post Co.’s status as a privately held company."

    I have no (printable) comments relating to the holdings of Mr Bezos’ privates.
