More Texas Political Gerrymandering...

Read what THE PEOPLE the gerrymandering affects have to say in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Did anyone ask THE PEOPLE??

Want a good example of Texas district gerrymandering?  Try reading a Tarrant Regional Water District voting area map. 

Redistricting map

Tarrant County voters should be outraged at the congressional districts drawn by Republicans in Austin. There is no excuse for this type of gerrymandering.

This county deserves to have its own congressional representative, not divided up by four different ones. I don't know why voters even considered voting for those people in Austin in the first place.

There is a sure way for voters to put an end to such ridiculous practices and that is to vote out every politician who has served more than two terms.
