Deceased GOP Strategist's Daughter Makes Files Public That Republicans Wanted Sealed
North Carolina Republicans have been caught trying to intentionally disenfranchise voters in the state.
As NPR reported in an exclusive interview, the GOP has fought in court to try and keep copies of redistricting maps, spreadsheets and other documents from becoming public because it would reveal their work to gerrymander political maps.
But the daughter of late GOP strategist Thomas Hofeller posted them on her own website.
The documents reveal Hofteller worked to change maps in Arizona, Florida, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Tennessee and Virginia, along with specific counties in New York and Texas.
Hofteller’s daughter said she didn’t think her father cared much about protecting the GOP when he was gone. While he was alive, however, she said her father said that his goal was to use gerrymandering to “create a system wherein the Republican nominee would win.”
“State legislature, it doesn’t matter who votes for what. Congress, it doesn’t matter who votes for what. And president, it doesn’t matter,” she noted.
