@SharonGibson-g7d Gerrymandering seems to only help people who are in power stay in power. That is antithetical to the way the U.S is supposed to operate. If you can’t maintain power without giving yourself an unfair advantage, you should hold no office in the United States of America.

Gerrymandering is anti-democractic and anti-American. It goes against the will of the people. If your government doesn’t represent the will of the people it isn’t good enough for American citizens. It should be opposed by all people of all parties in all situations everywhere. It only befits those in power to take power away from the people and is fundamentally against the ideas of our country.

I have something that keeps me up at night, that makes me feel like “man I really wish I could change the ENTIRE GOVERNMENT”. That’s not exactly something one can take on unfortunately, especially not just a middle age maintenance tech from rural New Mexico🤦🏼♂️

Hope she takes on getting STAR Voting available to voters next. Fixing gerrymandering and implementing STAR voting are the two best things we can do to effect long term systemic change.
