For the last several days, I’ve been reading appeals from various do-gooders calling on Governor Pritzker to join their Fair Map crusade and allow Republicans an equal hand in drawing legislative and congressional maps.
Terry, I asked, what’s your view on giving Republicans an equal say in drawing state legislative and congressional districts?
And . . .
“Yes. That’s not just crazy—that’s freaking crazy.”
As you can see, when it comes to state politics, Terry’s a little like me on TIFs—once he gets started, it’s hard for him to stop.
And if I had to choose between this band of Trump-loving looney tunes or a heavy-handed Democratic ward boss when it comes to legislative map-drawing? Give me the boss—smoked-filled back rooms and all.
