Idea here was to split Spratt's old territory and otherwise maintain the existing map.

CD-1: 73% white, 20% black
CD-2: 66% white, 20% black
CD-3: 76% white, 19% black
CD-4: 69% white, 21% black
CD-5: 67% white, 27% black
CD-6: 38% white, 56% black
CD-7: 67% white, 27% black


That would put both Mulvaney and Spratt as well into SC-7.

I'm sick of this disgraceful, race based gerrymandering.  That section of the VRA must be stricken.  It's archaic.   The notion that minorities must have their own "majority" seats is inherently biased, racist and segregationist

You do realize the reasons those laws exist is because in the districts were previously drawn to race bait gerrymander and dilute minority votes as much as possible right??

Think of how Austin is being split into five districts to limit the voting power of Austin liberals as much as possible, well that is exactly how it use to be with areas that had large minority populations.  Split them up as much as possible to dilute any possible voting power they have.
