It is real simple. You take care of them when they are young. They take care of you when you are old. Socialist Security is already a pathetic joke and will only get worse. Go with the natural order of things and raise honest productive kids. Disown them if they become Democrats. That party is pure evil now.

"Do The GOP drawn maps benefit The GOP?"

Presumably.

The Governor's maps which were disallowed by the court would certainly have benefitted Democrats -- by about 3 seats in the Senate and 9 seats in the Assembly according to the Princeton Gerrymandering Project:

And those guys sure know their business; they actually worked on helping the Democrats screw the Republicans in New Jersey.

The U.S. Supreme Court left in place the congressional district boundaries drawn by Evers and approved by the state Supreme Court. Friday’s decision by the state court affects only races for the state Legislature.

That, it seems, is the $64M question that never gets brought up in public, for some mysterious reason.

In most of the key states...the “battleground” states...Rat Party Headquarters is drawing them.Given that fact...and a few other facts (like mail in balloting)...I wouldn’t bet a plug nickel that we’ll take the House *or* the Senate in November.

The Democrats have appealed that ruling to the all-Democrat NY state Supreme Court. I can’t imagine how they will rule.

In all but Erie, Albany and the boroughs (counties) of NYC. Dominion over all. They must be thrown out everywhere.
