All you need probably is calling C-j, not RET
There is certain confusion IMO in recent design, as
C-j is bound to electric-newline-and-maybe-indent
which works as I would expect from newline.

Perhaps this behavior exists because there can also be a
situation like this:
def test():
print("test")

where what electric indent does after pressing RET
(creates new line aligned to the print statements) makes
sense. I think it is mostly irritating though, and editors
I tested, Vim and Sublime Text, do not automatically
indent in any of the situations I mentioned.
FWIW this works as a workaround for me:
(setq electric-indent-functions
'((lambda (inserted-char)
(when (eq major-mode 'python-mode)
;; Do not auto-indent after inserting any empty
line
(when (save-excursion
(previous-line)
(beginning-of-line)
(looking-at "^\s*$"))
'no-indent)))))

electric-indent-mode works from post-self-insert-hook. Not
sure how
cursor position and timers are related.
