Republicans in North Carolina deny that their voting districts were drawn up based on race.
After the Supreme Court ruled 5-3 that the boundaries were gerrymandered on racial grounds, Republican Connor Cracker-Fitzgerald said the ruling was an outrage.
“We tried to protect against voter fraud and they called that racist,” he said, referring to the controversial voting test that excluded anybody good at basketball, “Now they say our boundaries are racist? It’s political correctness gone mad! They’ll be drinking from our water fountains next!”
The court found that the Republicans had deliberately redrawn boundaries to lessen the black vote and reduce the odds of a Democratic win.
“They say we deliberately made districts more white to win the vote,” said Cracker-Fitzgerald, “but what else could we do? They banned lynching!”
