Recent headlines on #gerrymandering: "The utter failure of Republican #redistricting opens a door" (W. Post) "How Utah's redistricting fight may have backfired on Democrats" (Fox) In some cases, both parties blew it. Which makes us wonder: Why don't we stop this stupid game?

PA was the forerunner in representation-with the 1st state constitution promising "the people" the right to alter & reform our government. It's time to reclaim that right. Come learn more at our statewide conference on December 5 in Harrisburg. actionnetwork.org/ticketed_e…

Join us in Harrisburg to learn more about underlying systems in PA that put too much power in the hands of too few. PA was once the model of government of, by & for the people, not just billionaires and party leaders. It's time to reclaim that promise. actionnetwork.org/ticketed_e…

The American people want real representation and real solutions from the people we elect. It's time for redistricting reform & voting maps drawn to represent we the people, not the dreams of political leaders. yougov.com/en-us/articles/54…

Millions of dollars were spent on efforts to control the outcome of Nov 3 election. Apparently most of those efforts were dummymanders: gerrymandering efforts intended to favor a political party, but which backfire by benefiting another party instead. cbsnews.com/news/dummymander…

Well, #Philly, we stayed true to form. It was a wave election but we still didn't #vote. National participation was about 50%, ours about 45%. There are excuses, sure, but excuses don't matter if we're giving up our power & ducking responsibility.

Update on midterm #gerrymandering: For GOP, mostly (not entirely) a failure. For Dems in CA, a success. So the Dems were less stupid at the game. But how much longer will the stupid game continue? It's clear that voters don't like it. thehill.com/homenews/campaig…

In past sessions of PA legislature, many Dems supported #redistricting reform. Neither party's leaders allowed it to advance. Now Dems have full control. Will they pass a bill to end #gerrymandering? Or will they pretend there's nothing wrong with the system? We're watching.
