Thank you Attorney General Eric Holder for continuing this most important work at this time when there are still at least three states and probably more where Legal gerrymandering is still a problem that needs to be fixed
I have an Alabama story that still haunts me. I (white female) live in Appalachian Mtns of VA and my fiance lived on the west bank of New Orleans after college graduation. One trip by auto to see him, I stopped in Alabama (pretty rural) to get gas. Got a drink and some snacks and went to register behind two black guys. The white clerk ignored them, and asked to help me. I said these two gentlemen were here first. They looked down and said "Go ahead", the clerk said "No, I'll help you." So I paid and left because I had the exact amount already in my hand. But, I had never seen that blatant disregard for other people and it has bothered me for over 40 years. We should be better than this.
They have to answer to God Almighty for what they did & do against others. The Bible clearly states that “GOD IS NOT PARTIAL.” How dare they think it’s ok to be.
I have a Georgia story for you, from about 15 years ago. I stopped at a gas station near my house that I did not normally trade at, because I was quite low on gas, and why not? No automatic pumps, so you had to go inside to pay before pumping. I was the only white person in the place, and I was totally ignored. All other customers were served; I stood at the counter like an invisible person. Eventually left. This is NOT normal, but it does still happen.
Thank you both for fighting for gerrymandering minorities voting rights. Great job. Everyone has a right to vote. White supremacy cults don't have a right to discriminate against minorities
WHITE Supremacist, KKK, 3 Per Centers, Neo-Nazi, ARYAN Brotherhood, Proud Boys and The Like, ALL Have Discriminated Against Minorities and Especially Against BLACK PPL; This Country's Racial History Of Division Clearly Points That Out!!
Gerrymandering favors the GOP at this point. Why, since the GOP IS a minority. We must insist on FAIR redistricting MAPS. No MORE favoring a GOP minority.
@@constancejackson9414 This Supreme removedgederal stop gaps and turned voting rights back over to the racist states these stop gaps were set in place because of... And, true to form these same states have been chopping up districts and minority communities on the distracting maps...
This is the right approach. We don't want to reg the maps toward Democrats, we want FAIR districts. Districts whose results reflect the electorate. Thank you Marc Elias and Eric Holder for devoting yourselves to this cause. The challenges by non-governmental units are a critical part of law. It's one of the most important decisions before the Supreme Court this year, which really concerns me. Dismantling Civil Rights has been an ongoing project of the Roberts Court. John Roberts has been on this since he worked for the Reagan Administration.
What can we, the general public, do about this terrible Supreme Court? I'm so frustrated with Scotus' decision on abortion and now it's unwillingness to take on the illegal gerrymandering that has been perpetuated on our nation by power-hungry Republicans. Something must be done!
What is needed is a majority of 60 Democratic Senators... What can beat the gerrymandered states is a strong g turnout, which the Democratic Party lacks... What needs to be beaten is the idea that your vote doesn't matter... California was once a red state...
The fact that the Supreme Court has purposely not made the rulings that are considered no brainers proves the point that we need a way to hold Court Justices' accountable. Right now they believe that they have no reason to do what they (and all of America) know is right because they will never be sued financially for their actions, plus none of them worry about going to prison for refusing to do what the Constitution requires them to do.
I support an overhaul of the Supreme Court. Term limit of 10 years. Rules for recusal and public acceptance of gifts or gifts in kind, with removal options.
Hopefully that can change and with the power of the senate and the house and the Presidentcy these reforms can take place. Any punishment may come later. It will take every eligible voter to vote and vote Blue NOVEMBER 5TH VOTE BLUE ALL THE WAY THROUGH
They consider themselves to be "the Kings' Court" and not "the Peoples' Court"....SCOTUS is no longer considered to be on the side of The Constitution. !
Likewise the US Senate, which gives population-disproportionate power to low-population states. Consider also the urban/rural divide, as in the Talking Feds episode Two Nations: th-cam.com/video/FDt-QBSv7Kk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=YlA8HVLSIKWtpJAn
@@PhilipMuench-w6c The urban/rural divide will never be resolved. It is two nations. What should happen, is Blue State taxes should not be funding Red States, for them to exist.
48 states award electoral votes on the basis of winner take all. Thus if a candidate wins 49% of the vote he/she doesn’t receive any electoral votes. This essentially means 49% of the people are not represented by elected officials who are concerned with their interests. Getting rid of the electoral college would require amending our constitution. That’s not likely to happen nor is changing the way electoral votes are allocated in the 48 winner take all states.
Once corruption gets a toehold, it becomes self-fulfilling as the Republican Party change the rules, to suit themselves. Dictatorships are mostly voted in by the electorate and evolves, rather than taken by force.
I applaud every single effort you make to help each vote count... One thing I find is missing (maybe I'VE just missed it!) is any focus on getting rid of the Electoral College... we need to get that piece of "gerrymandering" out of our process and let every single vote count equally.
If you go in to Democracy Dockett on line, you can find a explanation of the Electoral College, why and how it was created and why it does not work today. You can also find info on the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact - a plan to go around the Electoral College without having to go through the long, and at the moment nearly impossible process in Congress to amend the Constitution.
AG Eric Holder is awesome! I have a great respect for him. I'm thrilled he's devoted his time to fighting for voting rights. It's good to know you and your team, Marc, have good men and women like AG Holder out there in the battle for legal maps, and equal rights and access to the ballot box. Thank you both very much. 💙💙💙💙👍👍💙💙💙💙😊
What about TENNESSEE? It’s being run by DICTATORS! What can be done? Bc if nothing is done now, y’all’s whole country will become SHUDDER 😱😣 a DICTATORSHIP.
Holders point that early 20th century Europe's embrace of fascism wasn't because fascism was strong ideologically, it was a weakened defence of democracy. It's an unending fight that might seem exhausting, but it's better to be exhausted in the shade.
Thank you both for ur service. Marc,Florida might need ur help. We will have abortion rights on the ballot this year. U already know what DeSantis has done with the 6 week bill. Signed at midnight. But he intends to stop the ballot if it passes. Please watch after our election and engage ur team if he tries to do anything to cancel our votes. Please.
You know gerrymandering is bad when Asheville ends up having Madison Cawthorn representing them. If enough land is voting around your city as your city - you end up being ruled by mostly land and their few owners.
I get so frustrated when I hear people say all politicians are corrupt. So many of these public servants could easily find employment elsewhere,make more money and complete more tasks. I have so much respect for the dedicated individuals who feel called to serve their fellow citizens. I am forever grateful
thomas just like trump were allowed to get away with bad actions & then allowed to be put in positions of power. Hence y’all have the mess y’all are in now. The decision on thomas needed to have been investigated further & pursued no matter what race he is. Maybe that’s why he got away with the situation with Miss Hill.
Great conversation Mark with Attorney Holder explaining in depth why it's important from his perspective why Democracy will be lost in America if donald trump is elected. Hopefully, those who're taking it for granted were listening. VOTE 💙 🗳 ☑️ DEMOCRAT 2024 for the country's Democracy and Constitution in a landslide victory getting rid of donald trump and his enablers permanently is extremely important.
@dianebuzzout4222 funny thing is - I've been voting blue for 20 years and shit has only gotten worse. Why didn't the democrats put more people on the Supreme Court???
The single most effective way to find the answer to which judge you should vote for can be found at your local Democratic party. You don't have to join, just look at their websites. They announce endorsements after the primaries.
That was a great interview! Democracy docket team are doing a fantastic work in defending our democracy and working working tirelessly for equal justice justice and rights for all!

As a democrat, I now pay GREAT attention to which judges I vote for, though currently my state seems safe. And it is VERY hard to “judge the judges” for lack of interpretable data on their backgrounds and records.
I really enjoyed this conversation. Isn't it sad that people who profess to be Godly make life so hard for other human beings? Bless Mr. Holder and his continued pursuit of justice and fairness for all of us.
Excellent episode I think Eric Holder is fantastic. You both do important work; and I appreciate it very much. Thank you both for the great work you do 💙💙👍👍💙💙
That’s a very important reminder that there is joy and camaraderie in the stubble success of winning. I remember when I thought of myself as a member of Dumbledore army fighting against Donald Donald Trump, and his death eaters that I very much felt like I was engaged in a meaningful and very importantbattle and we won but now we have to undo the damage and it looks like it’s gonna take decades, and that’s why it’s important to prevent the damage in the first place, because it takes decades to undo it
Excellent and informative conversation. Huge thanks to you and former AG Holder for all you do for fair voting maps and crucial voting rights education abroad.
In Alabama, just addressing redistricting won't stop GOP dirty tricks. I li Ed in Huntsville AL for 24 years and for Obama's reelection, I fortunately heard in advance that they were purging the voter polls. I called ahead of voting day to find out if I had been purged, and sure enough I had. I asked why, and was told I hadn't voted for a few years. A lie. I voted every election. I was in a heavily democratic district.

"The Roberts court has been no friend to voting rights."
And no friend of Democracy. Certain justices on the court seem highly contemptuous of everyday Americans.
North Carolina has huge problems with it’s Gerrymandered maps !
It should never have been allowed to come to this. Keep track even more so now on what the repugnicants do & are planning to do.
Thank you Attorney General Eric Holder for continuing this most important work at this time when there are still at least three states and probably more where Legal gerrymandering is still a problem that needs to be fixed
Thank you Eric Holder for your work on voter districting. Racial and partisan gerrymandering has reduced voting rights for Dems and people of color.

It's not just the gerrymandered districts, but the frigging Electoral College that sits like a dead hand on the democratic process.
The EC needs to go. It’s ripe for fraud and goes against the one man, one vote rule.
Likewise the US Senate, which gives population-disproportionate power to low-population states.
Consider also the urban/rural divide, as in the Talking Feds episode Two Nations:
th-cam.com/video/FDt-QBSv7Kk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=YlA8HVLSIKWtpJAn

That’s not likely to happen nor is changing the way electoral votes are allocated in the 48 winner take all states.
Amending the constitution can be done. Not easily. But it would be for the greater good to remove the EC to get to one man, one vote.
