- π‘ The term 'gerrymander' originated in Massachusetts in 1812, but some scholars suggest Patrick Henry practiced similar tactics in 1789 to defeat James Madison.
- π Despite accusations, Madison won his election, and his district was composed of compact counties, not an artificially designed one.
- π Elbridge Gerry, the governor who signed the bill for the Massachusetts redistricting, was a significant figure, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and a former Vice President.
2020 Census Irregularities
- β οΈ The 2020 census is described as a 'disaster' with mathematical errors, including overcounts and undercounts that disproportionately benefited Democrats.
- π Rhode Island and Minnesota should have lost seats, Colorado was wrongly given one, and New York potentially should have lost one, while Florida and Texas did not receive the seats they were due.
- π Ten of twelve identified over/undercounts benefited Democrats, with five of six undercounts in Republican states and five of six overcounts in Democrat states.
- βοΈ These errors impacted House seat distribution and the Electoral College, potentially increasing President Trump's electoral victory margin.
Gerrymandering by Democrat-Controlled States
- πΊοΈ Following the census, Democrat-controlled states engaged in aggressive gerrymandering and redistricting.
- π Illinois, with 34.5% Democrat registration, has 14 Democrats and 3 Republicans in its House delegation, with a district map described as a 'bowl of linguini.'
- π Maryland, with 50.22% Democrat registration, has 7 Democrats and 1 Republican.
- π Massachusetts, with 33.03% Democrat registration, has 9 Democrats and 0 Republicans.
- π New Jersey, with 40.99% Democrat registration, has 9 Democrats and 3 Republicans.
- π½ New York, with 48.78% Democrat registration, has 19 Democrats and 7 Republicans.
- π California, with 45.83% Democrat registration, has 43 Democrats and 9 Republicans.
Constitutional Interpretation and Immigration
- ποΈ The Constitution mandates an 'actual enumeration' through a regular census for representation, but the interpretation of 'persons' to include non-citizens is debated.
- π« Democrats are accused of opening borders in violation of federal law and refusing to deport individuals, also in violation of federal law.
- π³οΈ The inclusion of illegal aliens in the census affects voting power by assigning districts based on total population, not just citizenry, thus diluting the voting power of citizens.
- βοΈ Citizens in districts with fewer illegal aliens have more influence than those in districts with a higher proportion of non-citizens.
Political Motivation Behind Open Borders
- π― The core reason Democrats oppose deportation and support open borders is to permanently control the House of Representatives and the Electoral College.
- π Immigration, both legal and illegal, has shifted House seats, with a significant number benefiting Democrats beyond census errors and gerrymandering.
- πΈ Democrats allegedly want to provide illegal aliens with healthcare, work permits, social security benefits, voting rights, and ultimately amnesty, not out of care, but for political power.
- π£οΈ The speaker characterizes Democrat rhetoric as manipulative, deceptive, and fear-mongering, designed to stifle independent thought and control the population.
