WA Redistricting Commission has been attacked. Gerrymandering is back. Novoselić testified in Olympia over various sessions in favor of the WA Voting Rights Act. Partisans have weaponized the WA VRA. Read the latest in THE SUMMIT. https://t.co/byd6JzSKal

WA Constitution, " To the extent reasonable, each district shall contain contiguous territory, shall be COMPACT AND CONVENIENT". The legitimate map, approved by the state commission, had compact districts. Behold the sprawling @gerrymander of the new map.
This quote, in an opinion by judge Robert Lasnik, establishes the new WA #gerrymander map, "the Democratic platform is apparently better aligned with the economic and social preferences of Latinos in the Yakima Valley region than is the Republican platform ..." @nikkitorres509
This is insane! One of the most heavy handed and extremely partisan decisions I’ve ever seen. Overturning the people’s bipartisan redistricting commission maps to help boost Democrat numbers in the legislature is wrong. It must be stayed and appealed immediately. This is gerrymandering gone wild.

The government’s action with TikTok shows how decentralised social media can benefit groups. FWD_WA allows state residents into our own private platform where users become party members. https://t.co/vANACYzVeb
