Via NC Democratic Party,
"Wow, Pop, thanks! A Congressional District just for me?"
No, it's not the Gerber Baby. Meet the hand- picked Republican frontrunner for the newly drawn 13th Congressional district and the son of the most powerful Republican in the Senate: The Berger Baby.
Phil Berger Jr may be 39 years old, but he is one lucky kid. His Dad-- Senate President Pro Tempore Phil Berger Sr.-- not only had a big hand in purging Brad Miller’s district of registered Democrats and proposing it run from Surry to Wake County, but he'll be able to steer incredible GOP resources to his son's Congressional campaign when the announcement becomes official this fall.
The GOP maps mean big opportunities for the children of gerrymandering in new majority Republican seats across the state. How many more Berger Babies are there?
Now I thought this was completely against the law, Talking about favoritism to the high level. Not to speak of the corruption that it breeds. If the Democrat did this every Republican would be crying foul and suing the hell of them..
I sincerely hope the NAACP does file a challenge to these new congressional maps..
