美国前副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯呼吁民主党人在下次掌权时考虑扩大最高法院规模、废除选举人团制度,随即遭到共和党人的强烈反对。
“让我们一起探讨相关想法,比如最高法院改革,包括扩大法院规模的提议,”哈里斯在与左翼非营利组织“崛起”(Emerge)的电话会议中表示。“让我们讨论如何推动波多黎各和华盛顿特区建州;我们该如何看待选举人团制度。”
“我们必须遏制这种红州作弊行为,”她继续说道。“另一方手段残忍、毫无底线,我们必须为胜利而战。”
哈里斯呼吁“大胆”改革之际,民主党在选区重划之争中遭遇两次重大挫折,两党都在抓紧为11月的中期选举绘制新的国会选区地图。
哈里斯的“无禁忌头脑风暴”:扩大最高法院席位、废除选举人团

4月底,最高法院出台新规限制在选举区划分中考虑种族因素,实际上废除了南部各州由民主党掌控的多个黑人选民占多数的选区。5月初,弗吉尼亚州最高法院又以程序问题为由推翻了一项有利于民主党的选区划分方案,民主党再次遭受打击。
“他们通过宣称选区重划中的政治考量是合法的,实则是通过政治手段暗中推行种族歧视,”哈里斯在电话会议中还表示。“他们的意图就是刻意压制民众的声音。”
这位2024年总统候选人的提议遭到众议院议长迈克·约翰逊(R-拉法叶州)的严厉谴责,他指责民主党人是“系统性纵火犯”。
“这是一件危险的事情,一场危险的赌博,”这位议长说道。“你不能仅仅因为选举失利就炸毁整个体制。”
“身为美国前副总统和总统候选人,竟然提议因为选举失利就扩大最高法院席位或摧毁这些国家机构,我认为这简直不可理喻,”他补充道。

共和党众议员拉尔夫·诺曼(R-南卡罗来纳州)也批评了哈里斯的言论,在接受福克斯新闻采访时称其“完全疯狂”。
“这就是我们不能让她成为总统的原因,”他说。“民众之前就否决过她;他们还会再次否决她。”
并非所有民主党人都赞同哈里斯的观点。
“我认为这是本末倒置,”科罗拉多州民主党众议员杰森·克劳对福克斯新闻表示。“目前我关注的是降低生活成本、医疗保健、结束一场耗资数千亿美元的失控战争。这些才是我的选民们向我提及的议题。”
哈里斯呼吁民主党采取报复行动之际,共和党在中期选举前的选区重划之战中显然占据上风。在多个共和党领导的州完成新国会选区地图绘制后,共和党有望额外拿下十多个席位,而民主党迄今仅在加利福尼亚州和犹他州取得了些许进展。
5月初,田纳西州拆分了其唯一的黑人选民占多数的选区——该选区多年来一直由一位白人民主党议员代表——这让共和党得以拿下一个长期未能攻克的席位。

在最高法院作出上述裁决后,路易斯安那州和南卡罗来纳州也在采取类似行动,以消除多个民主党掌控的选区。
众议院少数党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯(D-纽约州)誓言将在纽约、新泽西、科罗拉多和俄勒冈等蓝州和摇摆州推动自己的选区重划方案作为回应。但这些州要到2028年才有可能更新选区地图,因此11月的中期选举前这一切都无从谈起。
Harris labeled ‘institutional arsonist’ for plan to fundamentally transform SCOTUS and Electoral College

Former Vice President Kamala Harris faced swift Republican backlash after calling on Democrats to consider expanding the Supreme Court and gutting the Electoral College the next time they are in power.
“Let’s invite ideas, for example, that are about Supreme Court reform, including the notion of expanding the court,” Harris said on a call with the left-wing nonprofit Emerge. “Let’s invite a discussion about how do we push for statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C.; how are we thinking about the Electoral College.”
“We’ve got to neutralize this red state cheating,” she continued. “There’s a brutality at play on the other side, and a ruthlessness. And we need to play to win.”
Harris’ plea for “bold” reforms came after Democrats suffered two major setbacks in the redistricting wars, as both parties scramble to draw new congressional seats ahead of November’s midterm elections.
HARRIS’ ‘NO BAD IDEA BRAINSTORM’ FOR DEMS INCLUDES PACKING SCOTUS, ELIMINATING ELECTORAL COLLEGE

In late April, the Supreme Court moved to curb the use of race in the drawing of electoral districts, effectively gutting Black-majority districts held by Democrats across the South. Democrats were dealt another blow at the Virginia Supreme Court earlier in May when a Democratic-friendly gerrymander was struck down over a procedural concern.
“What they have done with this decision, by saying that the politics of redistricting is okay, is they are back-dooring racism through politics,” Harris also said on the call. “What they are doing is intentionally about trying to suppress the voice of the people.”
The 2024 presidential candidate’s ideas drew a sharp rebuke from House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., who accused Democrats of being “institutional arsonists.”
“It’s a dangerous thing, a dangerous gambit,” the speaker said. “You don’t just blow up the system when you lose.”
“For the former vice president of the United States and a candidate for president to suggest that you should pack the Supreme Court or destroy these institutions because they lost is I just think outrageous,” he added.

Conservative Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., also criticized Harris’ comments, calling them “totally insane” in an interview with Fox News.
“That’s why we can’t let her become president,” he said. “People … rejected her before; they’ll reject her again.”
Not all Democrats are in agreement with Harris.
“I think that’s putting the cart before the horse,” Rep. Jason Crow, D-Colo., told Fox News. “Right now I’m focusing on lowering costs, health care, ending a runaway war that’s costing Americans tens of billions of dollars. Those are the things that my constituents are talking to me about.”
Harris’ calls for Democratic retaliation come as Republicans are emerging as the clear winners in the redistricting battle ahead of the midterms. The GOP could pick up more than a dozen seats after a bevy of GOP-led states have drawn new congressional maps while Democratic gains have so far been limited to California and Utah.
Earlier in May, Tennessee carved up its lone Black-majority district, represented for decades by a white Democrat, allowing Republicans to pick up a seat that had long eluded them.

Louisiana and South Carolina are conducting similar efforts to erase several Democratic-held seats following the Supreme Court’s ruling.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., has vowed to respond with his own gerrymander push in a swath of blue and purple states, including New York, New Jersey, Colorado and Oregon. But those states are not likely to move forward with new maps until 2028, making it a moot point ahead of November.
