Why divide La Crosse in half and attach land far away? Just drowning out Conservative voices in my opinion. Why add another seat using half of La Crosse? Same reason. It seems to me this is just another gerrymandering tactic to over-correct the old gerrymandered maps. It would really be nice to see, just once, an attempt at fair and honest political representation… is that asking too much in America these days?

Clearly, the corrupt Dems are using largely democratic La Crosse to dilute the less populous, more conservative, rural areas, thereby disenfranchising them.

The Wall Street Journal, on Wednesday (2/21), stated “…the Evers map is an audacious gerrymander that heavily favors Democrats.” And “To offset the concentration of Democratic voters in cities like Madison, the new maps distribute urban liberal voters into suburban and exurbin areas.” And further “This is a progressive coup financed by national Democrats led by former Attorney General Eric Holder and implemented by politicians wearing judicial robes.”
