Tune in here to this ​Tuesday's edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen! Filling in for Breaking Brett Jensen is Nick Craig from The Carolina News Hour to kick the show off by talking about redistricting and its national political implications. With lawmakers set to return to Raleigh on October 20th, Craig outlined the announcement from House Speaker Destin Hall and Senate Leader Phil Berger that the North Carolina General Assembly will redraw congressional maps—part of a larger, nationwide redistricting battle. He traced how this trend started with Democrat-led states like Illinois and California before Republican states like Texas followed suit, triggering a tit-for-tat response. Craig argued that rather than offering better ideas to win elections, Democrats are trying to reshape electoral boundaries to gain advantage. He emphasized the partisan nature of redistricting across the country, pushing back on accusations of gerrymandering being exclusive to Republicans.
