191: Disgraceful gerrymandering in Maryland

<p>The boys drink and review Black Ox Rye Porter, then discuss gerrymandering, especially in Maryland.</p> <p>The Maryland legislature recently proposed a scheme to redraw Congressional districts in the Old Line State.</p> <p>Redistricting makes sense and is necessary as populations move. But it's come to be a partisan exercise in maximizing the representation of the party in power in the state. Both parties have abused this power.</p> <p>In deep blue Maryland, this means the Democrats are redrawing the lines to eliminate all Republican representation. When Republican Texas does the same, the Justice Department attacks. Somehow Maryland is getting a pass.</p>
