Corrine Brown is the real mockery here.

Should we feel outraged since the Fl GOP either helped or did nothing as Col Allen West was redistricted into a Dem district and lost as a result??!!

Such a district is a mockery. They always have been, always will be. It is shameful when the dems do it, shameful when the gop does it.

If I was the judge, I would tell these pieces of puke that if i don’t like the next map they bring, i will waffle-stamp the state, and they can only adjust lines on the grid to get the proper population. So each district will be a rectangle except for coastlines.

They would still try to weasel that as well. I hate politicians!

“I’m shocked, shocked to find out gambling is going on at Rick’s”

You mean to tell me the party in charge organizes congressional districts to seek political advantage?

Why is it that Dems seem to always be able to get Voting ID statutes retrained so they don’t apply in an upcoming election but we couldn’t get THIS decision restrained so it doesn’t apply in the upcoming election?

Districts should be drawn based on geographical proximity and population clusters. A computer can do it in a few minutes.

Remember...the GOP In Florida redistricted Allen West into a more Democrat district...and cost him re-election.

Also....District 10...Orlando area rep Dan Webster....is mostly Hispanic and liberal. FL GOP redistricting made it easy for Alan Grayson to win back a House seat in another Orlando area district (formerly conservative one)

This court ruling may actually help conservatives in long run...as the GOPe in FL tried so hard to eliminate conservative districts

"If one or more districts do not meet constitutional muster, then the entire act is unconstitutional," Judge Terry Lewis wrote.

Now, if only we could get some judges who think that way to make a ruling on ObamaCare...

I’m surprised that the writer doesn’t drag out the fact that Judge Lewis was involved in the Bush-Gore recount.

"The word gerrymander (originally written Gerry-mander) was used for the first time in the Boston Gazette on 26 March 1812..."-wiki

NOW we find out its unconstitutional! You would think that someone would have figured this out 200 years ago.

Does this apply to the US as a whole, or are we just fixing republican Florida? Thought so...

Florida judge Terry Lewis was appointed to the Leon County district court in 1998 by Democratic Gov. Lawton Chiles.

It is apparent that he is aiding and abetting a misdirection campaign, a Democrat specialty, to accuse the opposition of what he knows full well his fellow travelers are themselves guilty of ten times over.

Same sh!t, different decade.

We live in that little thin squiggle that looks like an appendix between duval county and orange park. I so much want out of Corrine Browns District so anything that moves that boundry away from me suits me just fine.

On the plus side, maybe we’ll be removed from her district!

Ha.

Laws made by judges and via executive orders.

Who needs a legislature elected by the people at large, representing their interests?

Oh, wait, Article I Section I.
