Time for large swaths of NY state to separate themselves from NYC. For that matter, it's time for the nation as a whole to refuse to be dictated to by group thinkers from within large cities.

"The democrat party is a criminal organization disguised as a political party."

Exactly. When are people going to wake up?

Not substantially different from the rules set in place after the ascendancy of the National Socialists to power in Germany and the establishment of the Third Reich. The Nazis took things one step further by rounding up and imprisoning, later executing, most or all the dissidents.

Keep in mind that Adolf Hitler was a great proponent of “green” environmental policies, until he wasn’t. “Green” is no way to fight a war and invade other countries.

There’s that word again. It was like finger nails on a chalk board during the Obama era, at least to me. It’s a word the left loves to use. It’s a word the left understands. They don’t understand our Constitutional Republic, nor do they want to. They only know that word, therefore they aren’t qualified to be Constitutional leaders in our great Republic.

Only authoritarians, despots seek to rule. Ours is not an authoritarian form of government. The word “Rule” has its place, but not as intent to govern our form of government.

I hate the left. Sorry if that’s “hate speech”.

But maybe with no one in NYC to count for the census, it might no look so good.

The first item - fixing the number of seats - may not be in state constitutions (or it may), but long-standing traditions has fixed the number of seats.

The second thing - counting aliens, legal and illegal, could violate the 14th amendment. It’s not clear from the first sentence of Section 1 that state jurisdiction extends to such persons.

No problem - all of us conservatives will immediately join the Democratic Party and start running conservative candidates under the Democrat label. Just watch them frantically try to deprogram their mindless robot voters after that: "No, not that (D)!!!" :)

New York may eventually have 100% Dem elected officials in Albany. But they won’t be able to pay their bills because they are driving out all the taxpayers.

Click the NY State map on the site below to see how much tax $’s are leaving NY State while you watch it leave.

During Jim Crow days when Republicans moved south, they would be have to resister as Democrats since all Southern states were one party democrat.(the winner of the democrat primary WAS the candidate since Republicans never won)

That switch party thing allowed them to vote against the most offensive democrat... and sometimes run a RepublicanLite as a democrat...

There are ways around democrat thugs.

Funny you say that. A judge is waiting in the wings to stop that from happening. Oh but not New York of course.

We are just a corrupt Country now. It was inevitable when God was taken out of our lives.

‘NY Democrats are moving to lock in one-party rule — maybe forever’

Seems to me that is their plan for this Republic if they can cheat their way into the House, Senate and White House in 2020.

If Republicans do that, the Democrats sue and get to redraw the districts themselves.
