Here in WI we have an unelected (gerrymandered) Assembly and Legislature still thinking (wanting) to call all the shots. More votes were cast for Democrats all across the state, yet Republicans were entrenched by crooked politics - by which I mean their entire map drawing process was corrupt from the start. They even ignored subpoenas to divulge their dealings, which were conducted in private with a Madison law firm. They wouldn’t even let their own rank and file in on the shady dealings. And yet they want some sort of respect?
Egregious actions taken to the furthest extent of partisanship, by all reason and common sense, should have been voided by the courts long ago, but part of the Republican strategy (successful, by the way) was to stack the state courts at all levels with their ilk.
So, to reply to your comment, who the hell knows how to get them out. The process will begin again in WI, and hopefully, on a more equitable basis. This is just another example of the erosion of the political system that we have endured for the past two hundred plus years.
Good luck to us all.
