Bramnick will win despite the vicious gerrymander.

Kind of like how Democrats are on track to flip the VA HoD despite the vicious gerrymander there.

Ohhhh, I can't wait until Democrats gerrymander the living hell out of Virginia. Maybe they'll go on another 120-year run of complete control.

But I can think of ways to retaliate.

Complaining on a message board like you do with New Jersey?

Nah. Congress and Jeff Sessions can simply block Virginia from gerrymandering with legislation, among other things. We won the elections and have the keys of federal power.

Guess we don't believe in state's rights anymore.

You think your party's tactics won't be used against your party?
