The US desperately needs electoral commissions like those in Australia. Fiercely independent and apolitical and staffed by people who believe in democracy. Redistributions are carried out according to need, not bias. Regulations and requirements all embedded in legislation.

Clearly Mr Gibson thinks violence is a good thing. That should immediately disqualify his opinion.
