“Stein, who was first elected to the House in 1997 and later the Senate in 2009, has been an outspoken critic of the Republican Senate majority and Senate President David Williams. Stein said that the Senate’s actions were “petty” and that she is deciding whether she will seek legal action to stop the proposed plan. Sen. Damon Thayer, R-Georgetown, and chairman of the Senate State and Local Government Committee, said that redistricting Stein out of Fayette County was not retaliation but rather a causality of redrawing the legislative district lines to conform to new census figures. Thayer did not answer when asked if Williams had ordered that Stein’s district be moved because of a vendetta. Stein said she was glad that Thayer at least did not lie.”

I realize the name Kathy Stein probably doesn’t mean much to most of you but this is terrible. It’ll be a damn shame if Kathy loses her state senate seat because of this gerrymandering.
