Ah, the other extreme. The alternative extrema we can visit since we got bored of this extreme, and in the whole of this universe there exist only these two opposite extreme choices.
Sad!
- FireBeyond 4y agoNot a matter of getting bored with anything. That extreme will be the literal and actual outcome if the SC rules in favor of the state. NC's contention is exactly that: "to violate the state constitution when drawing congressional maps and that the state courts do not have the power to stop them". And further, that that theory extends to all other state election rules put in place through ballot initiatives, state constitutions, and administrative regulations — including foundational state policies like the processes for voter registration and mail voting and basic guarantees like the secret ballot. That the legislature can change any or all of these without referendum, without ballot, without vetoability, and without review in court, state or federal. So yeah, that extreme. Because it is extreme.
