Why call it a plot? And why is it hatched? These terms are usually used, at least in modern times, when describing bad actors. No?
Maybe I have the wrong impression/idea.
You’re absolutely right about the connotations here. “Plot hatched to thwart” is exactly what you’d say about a nefarious conspiracy.
In fact, plot hatched to thwart democracy is about how I’d sum up this administration.
The title makes it sound like a lot more than it actually is. TL;DR: the most recent Republican gerrymander in one state wasn’t as bad as it might have been and it’s expected Republicans will try to re-gerrymander to make it worse. If they do Democrats are going to try to collect 250k signatures on a public petition which would then trigger a legal loophole that would revert things back to the currently gerrymandered but slightly less than it could have been map until after the 2026 election. Nationally there’s still no answer to the multiple Republican controlled states that are rigging elections in various ways.
Let’s circulate a letter about this ASAP!
Nothing will happen.
No no, they may be hatching a plan!
All you need is a beat, and some backup singers.
