Michigan Democratic Party Chairman Mark Brewer is never one to shy away from blasting the Republican Party. But his response on Monday to the GOP-controlled Michigan Supreme Court ruling in favor of the gerrymandering by Oakland County Republicans set the bar pretty high – or low, depending on your partisan point of view.
Here’s his response to the ruling:
“Today, the Michigan Supreme Court has shown it is on the side of political corruption and not the rule of law,” Brewer said. “Two other lower courts have already declared this law unconstitutional, yet Republicans on the Supreme Court chose to ignore the law and the facts in order to permit Republican corruption.
“This plan was set in motion months ago and email records prove that the sole intent was nothing more than a Republican power grab. Our justices should be standing up for the Constitution instead of promoting corruption. Voters will not forget this decision and will hold this court accountable this November. Justices Markman and Zahra have once again proven they are nothing more than puppets of special interests.”
