NextImg:Yeah, That's Not It: Fort Worth Newspaper Blames Gerrymandering for Texas Being Red

The Left has been saying for years they're going to flip Texas blue. Despite trying everything -- including mass illegal immigration -- it hasn't.

So they're going with a new tactic: blaming gerrymandering.

This isn't going to work out well for them, either.

They write:

Texas is not a red state. It is a rigged state, with the district maps gerrymandered to benefit Republicans and generate apathy among Democrats. Coupled with voter suppression efforts, that has benefited the GOP since the early 2000s. 

More than 60% of voters used straight-ticket voting, which is why the Legislature removed it as an option when Democrats started to narrow the gaps with Republicans. But they have overplayed their hand. We’re tired of the extremists and their loud, divisive rhetoric.

This sounds like massive levels of cope to us.

Notice how they'll never argue California -- with a Democrat supermajority -- is only blue because of gerrymandering.

They can't help themselves though.
