Gross. “The documents cited in the Thursday court filing include an unpublished August 2015 analysis by Mr. Hofeller, who was hired by The Washington Free Beacon, a conservative news outlet financially backed by Paul Singer, a billionaire New York hedge fund manager and major Republican donor. Mr. Hofeller’s charge was to assess the impact of drawing political maps that were not based on a state’s total population — the current practice virtually everywhere in the nation — but on a slice of that population: American citizens of voting age. At the time, the study’s sponsor was considering whether to finance a lawsuit by conservative legal advocates that argued that counting voting-age citizens was not merely acceptable, but required by the Constitution. Mr. Hofeller’s exhaustive analysis of Texas state legislative districts concluded that such maps “would be advantageous to Republicans and non-Hispanic whites,” and would dilute the political power of the state’s Hispanics.” https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/30/us/census-citizenship-question-hofeller.html

Duh - they’re a minority of the population, so they absolutely have to cheat to win. I mean it’s always great when an article comes out confirming what we already knew, but it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone paying attention. They cheat because it’s the only way they can win.

Wait sorry why shouldn’t it based on people who can vote? I don’t understand?
Because young people don’t vote for starters. Older people are more habitual voters. So predicting voter turnout is a huge advantage. Also the age of the voter is predictive of how they will vote politically. Younger voters tend to be more democratic, progressive, and idealistic. Older voters tend to be more conservative. It’s just an easier way to gerrymander districts so politicians can’t lose. Districts should be drawn on population. Representation by population, not pigeonholing by type of voter.
They are not pigeonholing on type or voters, just whether they are voters or not
