Alabama is a bit of an extreme case. But the general point is: — The white share of the electorate is smaller — The “gettable” share of the shrunken white electorate is smaller — The remaining gettable white voters are more racially liberal Fair maps are win-win. — PolitiTweet.org

That’s not what today’s southern electorate looks like and the tradeoff has gone away. Compare @Redistrict’s optimal Dem gerrymander of Alabama to his “maximize minority representation” gerrymander of Alabama. https://t.co/ujzxySyMht — PolitiTweet.org

Last word! The Massachusetts House Democrats' concern is not crazy. Partisan fairness in their state would mean three of them need to run in D-leaning swing seats not safe blue ones. But while I oppose unilateral disarmanent, across-the-board fairness is good. Suck it up! — PolitiTweet.org
