Senate Minority Leader Raumesh Akbari and Democratic Caucus Chair Senator London Lamar led the fight against the gerrymandered state Senate voter map in Tennessee. Our state constitution says clearly that this is illegal. Especially when it is racially motivated. So do let’s thank and praise these Senators for their bravery, spearheading the action that led to a Tennessee court ruling that the Republican drawn state voter maps are unconstitutional. The court gave the general assembly until January 31 to adopt new maps. You may want to have a little input on that. Just sayin.
