With gerrymandering coupled with voter suppression, it’s easy to keep power in a state.
Relatively. There’s a reason they keep putting new suppression measures in place. They’re serious about holding on to power because they know that if the lose just once, Democrats will be in a position to undo all the suppression they put in place.
Of course, whether Democrats will actually undo suppression once they have an opportunity depends on if they would be willing to return rights to the people even if it means slightly transgressing upon whatever Republicans call decorum.
Dems need to suck it up and fix the system even if it means sometimes losing power, if it is only temporary. Ranked choice voting, nonpartisan redistricting, in the state constitution.
