I think Perry Bacon has it right:
National Democrats are also pushing officials in Illinois and Maryland to further gerrymander, with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries flying to Chicago earlier this week to make that pitch in person. That’s another good sign. The problem is that local officials in those states aren’t fully on board yet. Some Black politicians in Illinois are reportedly frustrated because effective gerrymandering could reduce the number of Black-majority U.S. House districts in the state, even if it increases the number of Democratic seats. Let me use my position as one of the relatively few Black columnists in the national media to say categorically—THAT IS STUPID. Having Democrats control the House is far, far better for Black Americans than having lots of Black House members in a Republican-controlled House. What are we doing here? Why do I have to make such an obvious point?
