The Democrats had the government, & they wouldn’t make gerrymandering illegal.
they wouldn’t make vote-districts be controlled by some non-partisan gov’t agency.

The reason that Science progresses is because Objective Truth outranks, in its system, politics.
Because politics rejects Objective Truth’s rule, therefore DEvolution is the result, instead of Evolution.
The 2 paradigms produce their inevitable results.
Bandaids don’t fix broken-bones.
You have to change the structural-function of government, if you want different kinds of results.
Until humankind outgrows political-wrestling-match-rules-all idiocy, then no systemic true-victory is possible.
