Democrats’ Gerrymandering Hypocrisy Exposed: They Rig Maps Far More Than Republicans, Yet Cry Foul in Texas

In a fiery segment on Steve Bannon’s War Room (on top), Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton laid bare the blatant hypocrisy of Democrats screeching about gerrymandering in the Lone Star State. As shared in a viral clip on X by Grace Chong, Paxton highlighted how MSNBC and left-wing media demand congressional maps mirror vote percentages—yet they turn a blind eye when blue states lock Republicans out entirely. “MSNBC says maps should mirror vote percentages. So I pulled the numbers,” Paxton stated, rattling off damning stats: In California, Republicans snag 40% of votes but only 17% of seats; Massachusetts, 35% and zero seats; Connecticut, 38% and zilch; New York, 42% yielding just 26%; Maryland, 38% for a measly 12%; New Mexico, 44% and nothing. “I could go on. They never complain when Democrats do it.”

The numbers don’t lie: Democrats control gerrymandering in more states and do it more ruthlessly. A 2022 analysis by the Heritage Foundation revealed that blue states like New York, Maryland, and California have some of the most distorted maps, diluting conservative votes through cracking and packing tactics. In Maryland, Democrats drew salamander-shaped districts to flip a 7-1 advantage, leaving Republicans with just one seat despite nearly 40% support. New York’s 2022 Democrat-led gerrymander was so egregious—aiming for 22 of 26 seats—that even the state’s liberal courts struck it down, but not before exposing their intent to steal power. Meanwhile, Republicans in states like Texas are simply responding to population growth, ensuring fair representation for booming conservative areas. This hypocrisy boils over in the current Texas showdown. Over 50 House Democrats fled to Illinois on August 3, 2025, breaking quorum to block redistricting that could add up to five GOP seats—reflecting Texas’s red wave in recent elections.

They cry “gerrymandering!” but ignore how their flight denies Texans a voice. President Trump slammed this stunt, noting Democrats’ history of rigging maps while feigning outrage. “The ‘Outnumbered’ panel discusses the ongoing feud,” as Fox News reported, with Trump pointing out how leftists like Pritzker shield these fugitives while gerrymandering their own states. Look at Massachusetts: Republicans get 35% of votes but zero congressional seats, thanks to Democrat-drawn lines that cram conservatives into urban enclaves. Connecticut’s the same—38% vote share, zero representation. New Mexico’s map is a joke: 44% Republican votes yield no seats, a classic case of Democrat packing to waste votes. Conservatives argue this isn’t just unfair—it’s unconstitutional, violating one-person-one-vote principles. Yet, when Republicans in North Carolina or Florida redraw maps to counter this, Democrats sue and scream “racism” or “voter suppression. “The left’s complaints are ridiculous because they pioneered modern gerrymandering. In the 1980s, Democrats in California created the infamous “Burton gerrymander,” locking in power for decades.

Today, blue strongholds like Illinois and New York continue the tradition. A Fox News piece highlighted how Democrats’ “revisionist history” ignores their own dirty tricks, from filibuster flips to map manipulations. Senator Tim Scott called out the “undeniable hypocrisy” on the left, noting they wipe clean the slate of election rules when it suits them. Republicans, by contrast, often play defense. In red states, redistricting reflects natural shifts—like Texas gaining two seats from census growth in conservative suburbs. But Democrats demand “proportional” maps only when it benefits them. If applied nationwide, blue states would lose big. As Paxton noted, “They never complain when Democrats do it.” The RNC has memos blasting Senate Democrats’ filibuster hypocrisy, paralleling their map-rigging double standards. This extends to national politics. Democrats pushed H.R. 1 to federalize elections, banning state gerrymandering bans while preserving their own advantages. Hypocrisy alert: House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries claims no “election deniers” among Democrats, ignoring their 2016 Russia hoaxes and map manipulations.

In 2024, young Democrats blamed Biden for losses, distancing from the “old guard” who gerrymander to cling to power. Conservative outlets like The Gateway Pundit and Breitbart have documented this for years. In Maryland, Democrats’ map was so bad the courts forced a redraw, but not before exposing their intent to eliminate GOP districts. Illinois under Pritzker is a gerrymandering hall of shame, with districts snaking through Chicago to dilute suburban conservatives. The left’s ridiculous complaints stem from fear: as America shifts right, their map-rigging can’t hold forever. In Texas, Governor Abbott’s warrants and FBI involvement under Kash Patel signal Republicans won’t tolerate it. Senator Markwayne Mullin blasted Senate Democrats’ hypocrisy, asking “How many of you have shown up drunk?” to highlight their inconsistent standards. Ultimately, Democrats gerrymander more because they control urban machines and use race-baiting to justify it. Republicans focus on compact districts, but when they fight back, the left cries foul. As Paxton’s clip shows, it’s time to call out this sham. Fair maps for all—or none. But don’t hold your breath for Democrats to play fair; hypocrisy is their game.
