  • Gerrymandering would only change a state’s electoral college votes meaningfully in one or two states.

    It’s more often an issue of:

    1. Citizen becomes voter via “motor-votor” registration.
    2. Later, state sends postcard asking to confirm voter’s address.
    3. Voter sees postcard, looks like junkmail or fraudulent mail, discards without response.
    4. State, not checking anything else, drops voter from roll.

  • The Palestinian people who are not US citizens do not get a vote at all.

    Here you assume that there are no Palestinian Americans, very racist.

    This is an illogical misinterpretation. Consider a Venn diagram of Palestinians and US Citizens. The intersection is obviously not the empty set. That initial sentence you quoted is describing the set of Palestinians minus said intersection. You even betray your misinterpretation by quoting “Palestinian people who were US citizens” between accusations of racism.

    Much of the rest of your comment similarly falls apart from this illogical misinterpretation.
