Marc Elias:

We must insist the Supreme Court protect voting rights and democracy. In 2015-17, I litigated and won 4 redistricting cases in the Supreme Court. In the last few years my firm has litigated two others in the Court and won both.

Don't give in to the cynics. When we fight we can win!

Elias said the days of Republicans meeting and drawing lines on a map are over. Elias said that AI will draw the maps that make it impossible for Democrats to win.

The teaser that was posted was Elias whistling past the graveyard. Elias was hoping the SC does the right thing. No one has gutted the Voting Rights Act more than John Roberts, he has this thing called a pattern, maybe he will veer off from his pattern?
