Since black voters vote Democratic 90+% of the time, arguably, drawing a black district is by definition ‘gerrymandering’ because it ALWAYS favors the Democratic Party. Republican Districts in Florida are known to elect conservative black candidates (e.g., currently – State Sen. Simon, State Rep. Barnaby, State Rep. Jacques, U.S. Rep. Donalds [formerly a State Rep. in a GOP district]).

This cannot be said of drawing a hispanic district, which routinely elect candidates from both sides of the aisle.

They got a black Senator, and still went bat-poop crazy because he’s a conservative!

SCOFLA will overturn this.
Patience.

The previous boundaries of district 5 exclusively favored the black vote. Al Lawson easily won the black vote.

The boundaries were redraw in a manner that made district 5 race neutral, not giving the black or white voters an advantage. Al Lawson lost the last election for district 5.

So now, people are up in arms and want district 5 boundaries put back so the black voters have an advantage over white voters and a black candidate will always win in district 5.

Do I have that right? If so, could white voters demand exclusively white districts too like the blacks are demanding.

~ “Under the stipulated facts (in the lawsuit), plaintiffs have shown that the enacted plan results in the diminishment of Black voters’ ability to elect their candidate of choice in violation of the Florida Constitution,” Marsh wrote. ~

That statement alone shows that this robed activist doesn’t belong on the bench. No voter – regardless of their skin tone – has the ability to “elect” their candidate of choice… rather they have a Constitutional Right to “vote for” the candidate of their choice. The statement also exposes that this activist in a robe believes that “black” people will – or are only permitted to – vote for a “black” candidate… which in itself is an extremely racist assumption.

Make no mistake about it, progressively-Marxist Democrats like this robed activist have been, are now, and always will be the true racists among us.

That was the Best thing DeSantis ever did! He freed us from the tyranny of Al Lawson in Jacksonville. I live in Gadsden County. Al has done NOTHING for blacks here. Except litter the landscape with his campaign signs. Good riddance.
