That is not what the headline is referring to with the 45k number…
That is the amount of votes that were already cast in a primary for the old maps…
And those ballots are discarded, and those voters will vote in two months in the districts they’re no in.
What you’re talking about isn’t what the article you’re commenting on is about buddy.
“But voting was already happening,” Vega said, cutting Landry off. “As we sit here right now, more than 45,000 ballots have been returned. What happens to those?”
In the previous article linked earlier, it says the primary will be in July, it’s confusing because in this article he jumps straight to talking about the general

This is the problem. They’re being gerrymandered into districts to unfairly enhance the ability of the party in power to remain in power even though the majority of voters would rather they aren’t. That it’s also happening over racism is especially evil (basically saying “fuck those people in particular for their skin color, they should be our slaves again”), but the realm issue is carving up the map to subvert the will of the people.
I’ll go ahead and say it: Redrawing maps shouldn’t even be a thing.
I’m not a new account. You’re nit-picking semantics when fascism is taking place and being a dick about it.
Votes are being thrown out in order to make those votes not matter. If doesn’t matter if there will be a show election in two months, the result is the same. Previously “too close to the election” has been the repeated refrain to disenfranchise black voters with illegal maps, now it doesn’t matter that votes have already been cast. It’s naked and open and you’re arguing semantic details as if we need to maintain a front of stolid respectability.

No…
I’m explaining that you don’t understand what the article you’re commenting on and you’re being very aggressive about it for some reason.
For some reason there’s been a steady stream of new accounts like yours accusing me of “being a dick” for explaining things logically.

No…
I said one comment. You’ve been arguing pedantry up and down this thread. Get outside or something, dude.
Weird…
You think the way to get someone to comment about something less…
Is to reply to them about it?
Yeah bud, facts and/or logic isn’t going to help.
I’m gonna block you now, if you want to keep replying me, feel free.
