To me itās just about the definition of the word. It would be incorrect to say, āThe WV legislature gerrymandered Joe Manchinās senate seat.ā Because gerrymandering means redrawing districts. You can totally say āThe gerrymandered WV legislature passed laws that make it harder for Joe Manchin to be elected.ā While gerrymandering affects the outcome, what theyāre doing to Joe Manchinās district is not gerrymandering.
Lol, youāre a writer and/or journalist, yes? Iām not and not that worried about getting it just right, the results are the same.

I was pretty sure we were agreeing and donāt get me wrong, I love people who love words because I donāt understand it but still find value in that way of thinking. I like art and physical beauty and I think word people probably also like art in the meanings of words and the ideas they create. You can see them happy when they read a good story and look up, its awesome.
@PeleSpirit Ha, recovering grad student. No worries, shitty voter suppression is shitty voter suppression at the end of the day.
