[QUOTE="It will be fine, post: 4111332, member: 55017"] There is a reasonable argument to made when voters are disenfranchised by the maps. A party receiving 30% of the total vote controlling 70% of the legislature for example. That shows the voters want a change but are not allowed to exercise their power. I think that’s a problem and a state wouldn’t fix that on their own. The question is how is that measured and who decides what’s too far. It’s not reasonable to claim there’s a state legislative solution when power has been so dramatically consolidated against the will of the electorate. [/QUOTE]
