Rep. Dina Titus (D-NV) said she “totally got fucked” by the Democratic state legislature in redistricting, the Nevada Current reports.
Said Titus: “I’m sorry to say it like that, but I don’t know any other way to say it.”
“Titus was referring to a shift of Democrats away from the first congressional district, historically an ironclad safe seat for Democrats, in order to strengthen their position in the state’s two swing districts. She warned the three congressional seats held by Nevada Democrats are now at risk of turning Republican during the 2022 election cycle, under the new maps approved by the state lawmakers and the governor last month.”
She added: “You read that the Republicans are using gerrymandering to cut out Democratic seats, but they didn’t have to in this state. We did it to ourselves.”
