After a protracted period of partisan debate and legal challenges, New York Democrats have potentially settled the state's redistricting for the current decade. A bipartisan agreement in the state legislature led to the approval of new U.S. House districts, expected to slightly favor Democrats, aligning closely with a court-established map from the 2022 elections. Despite some Republican support, the process has been criticized for its lack of transparency and public engagement. Governor Kathy Hochul signed the new map into law, amidst claims of a "mild/moderate gerrymander" by analysts. This redistricting marks a significant moment for Democrats, controlling the entire process for the first time in a modern redistricting cycle, aiming to impact the future balance of the House where Republicans currently hold a slim majority. Critics and supporters alike are closely watching the implications of these new district lines on future elections, especially in competitive areas of New York. #Redistricting #NewYorkPolitics #USHouse #PartisanDebate #DemocraticMajority #Gerrymandering #Election2024

WASHINGTON—Republicans looking to recapture the Senate in November think an apparently accelerating shift among Jewish voters from the Democrats to the GOP could significantly boost their candidates in battleground races. Voting data going back to 1912 compiled by the American-Israeli Cooperative Enterprise (AICE) shows a marked shift in Jewish voting beginning with the 2016 presidential balloting as Republican Donald Trump won 26 percent, compared to the average of 23.75 percent for the four previous GOP presidential candidates. President Trump increased his share of the Jewish vote by an additional four points to 30 percent in 2020.

Prevention: - Undeniable landslide popular vote against GOP candidate. - Widespread awareness of this plan, making it clear people won't tolerate it. https://lnkd.in/gfrQpadJ

the timeliness is tight given dates when mail-in ballots are to be printed and sent along with Super Tuesday elections. this is yet another sound assessment of the problem. not just whether Trump should be banned, he should, but whether the late dates might impede the "fair and timely" issue of actual voting. "Section 3 of the 14th Amendment seems clear on its face—its language is not ambiguous. It does not require a conviction. It does not require Congress to do anything further to make it effective. It is one of those rare provisions of law that is written in plain English: “No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.”" https://lnkd.in/dmv9Dgrq
