I'm not a big Hillary fan, though the more I learn, the more I might be coming around.

This election I'm voting straight ticket, "Big D"! Unfortunately, that's more about who I'm voting Against!

My remedy to gerrymandering. Take out the map and lay a transparency over it.

Divide by grid lines. There's your districts.

Bad solution. Alaska would have more districts than Texas, California, Florida combined...and some of those districts may have as few as 17 or 408 people in them. The grid lines would bisect many thousands of homes; in that case what determines the locality of the district: The entry door, the kitchen stove, or the toilet? Which one, if there's more than one? If the definitive front door, is that door 40% or 60% in a particular district?

If remodeling is done and the door is moved four inches, does that house change its District?

What about the grid which may just touch the Florida coast for 200 feet, and have ONE house in it?

Better, I say, to include nothing but entire/intact 5-digit Zip codes in a district. I don't think a Zip Code can encompass more than 30,000 or 40,000 people so, even though populations of each District wouldn't be absolutely equal, they would be close. Each of the 435 Congressional Districts includes an average of about 750,000 people - so the population variations would be trivial.

The size would depend on the state. Alaska's would be larger because of the area involved. What it would do is stop them from drawing wild designs (like on a bad acid trip) that make no fucking sense at all.

Contiguous and close to square districts would be the ideal.
There's no reason for any landlocked district to resemble a Jackson Pollock.
 
Oh no one is innocent of this.

The US just needs a non-partisan electoral boundaries commission like we have in Canada that divides the country into population based ridings that follow simple geographic boundaries.

It works well.

And means that no party gets a perpetual lock on a seat.
 
This "America deserves what it gets" mentality that people have if Trump gets elected is shit. No, the rights of people that are in danger and their well being don't deserve this because of a majority bigoted bad decision.
 
Gary Johnson couldn't name his favorite World Leader. And this is this is what people really want as a third party candidate?

Pretty amazing...although I guess it is possible to not admire any other country's leader as a Libertarian. That is where I would have gone, since there are no other Libertarian leaders I can think of either. They are all reactionary conservative dictators or fascists or big government lefty socialists.
 
Yea that would have been a good reply but it was apparent that he didn't know any, which of course is a big deal for someone wanting to be a Presidential Candidate and this not being his first unknowledgable mistake.
 
Put down the bong Gary.

This is one of the reasons why Libertarians are always treated as a joke.

Not a good answer. Too far left and big government. Johnson hopes to appeal to Republicans. Best answer would be that he cannot think of any libertarian leader.

My Brother is a libertarian so I get the updates on who is the next flavor of the month presidential candidate of their party.
 
I am absolutely loving John Oliver. I have only been watching him recently when it comes to the Political stuff, but he's pretty spot on and funny. Here is him going over third party candidates. And how come I never knew about Joe Exotic? I can't believe he is real. It's a good watch if you don't mind giving up 20 minutes to do so.

I'm 65 years young....... :p
The last time I voted FOR anyone was Reagan's first term.........look how THAT turned out....... :eek:
Not that there is even the most remote possibility of a vote for Trump from me I, once again, will vote FOR someone........Hillary.
I'm banking there's no way she could possibly be the disappointment Reagan was....... :cry:
