Yes,
of course I'll be tackling these cases. Short version, they got it right on both for the same reason. Bad faith argumentation. The Census question on citizenship was a clear attempt to create systemic undercounts, which directly conflicts with a specific constitutional imperative. However, while I have actually
published about gerrymandering and democratic theory, excoriating
partisan gerrymandering in the process, there is absolutely nothing in the Constitution about it. Every argument given to the Court, in a every case, was an attempt to find something in the Constitution for something that people find morally bad based on the
goal of finding it unconstitutional. That ain't the way it's supposed to work. Bad faith argumentation.
More this weekend.
