M.O.B. Votes:

votes and won about 63% of the state legislature seats thanks to blatant pro-GOP gerrymandering. Now the GOP is doing all they can in the state legislature to remove powers from the incoming Dem governor.

Pretty sad and pathetic but not surprising for the GOP as the party has done the same previously in North Carolina.

Please explain why this message is being reported.
