Proportionate Response

Sam Wang: “Democrats are considering retaliatory gerrymandering actions against what Republicans are doing in Texas. However, such measures are highly problematic for a well-working democracy.”

“I propose that any response should be measured and proportionate. In other words, if there’s going to be a response, it should be limited to the size of the Republican offense…”

“The Texas gerrymander is only likely to yield 3 additional seats. Ohio will only add 2 or 3 seats. These offenses are manageable.”
