Last week’s column condemned the Democrats’ principled opposition to Rod Adair’s radically gerrymandered redistricting maps, declaring it to be a “fiction” based on “inaccurate narratives.” The Observer claims it is illogical to object to packing Native Americans into one district while opposing the splitting of smaller communities such as Bernalillo, Corrales and Placitas. The Observer’s argument is seriously misguided and inaccurate.
