"There’s pretty much one thing giving the Trump resistance hope these days – November 6th. That's the day America goes back to the polls to vote for every member of the House of Representatives and one-third of our Senators. We don’t get to vote President Trump out of office until 2020, but this fall, we can make his job significantly harder by putting the control of one or both chambers of Congress into the hands of Democrats.
Yesterday, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court gave a big boost to that effort by ruling the state's congressional map was unconstitutionally gerrymandered. Better yet, the ruling should be final and unreviewable by the U.S. Supreme Court.
This was one of the most closely watched gerrymandering cases in the country. In every election since the state map was redrawn by Republicans in 2011, Republicans have won the same 13 of the state's 18 congressional districts , despite Pennsylvania voting for President Obama in 2012 by over 5 percent and only barely favoring President Trump in 2016 by less than 1 percent.”*
