About this episode
Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Is retaliatory gerrymandering ever justified? Michael unpacks Virginia’s controversial mid-decade redistricting move and the broader national trend of partisan map-drawing in response to earlier actions by opposing parties.

Is this strategic necessity, or a race to the bottom? Listen here, then vote! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
