If this is accurate, and I am not doubting that it is since the social mores of the age have been changing very rapidly ever since the world did not end once a few states allowed gays to have marriage equality; but if it is accurate across the entire voting population I am stunned that the GOP is not in full decline LOCALLY as well as NATIONALLY.

The gerrymandering that they pulled off by being in charge of re-districting following the 2000 and 2010 censuses is astounding.

In addition to term limits, strictly enforced and publicly funded elections and rescinding the draconian voter ID laws in favor of mandatory voting of ALL citizens of legal status to do so, fixing the damn voting districts to end this nonsense should be of paramount concern.
