What are they re-districting? And Why?

The Texas district map for the Texas U.S. House of Reps.

Voting trends in Texas are such that 55-65% of all votes cast in Texas are for GOP. The map currently in place (a 'RAT Gerrymander job in 1992) sends 17 'RATS and 15 GOP to the U.S. House.

The Liberal Media keeps saying that it will send SEVEN more GOP to Washington. Realistically, probably more like 4-6. Say we get 5. That would change it from 17-15 'RATS to 20-12 GOP.

The other good news already out last Friday is that LONG TIME 'RAT Ralph Hall announced he's jumping on board the GOP bandwagon. He has LONG been getting elected to office in his district. He has a GREAT ACU lifetime voting record of ~83 also, so he's already a conservative anyway. The folks that have been voting for him will continue to do so. So we could actually gain 6-7 seats if you throw that in.

How interesting.

I wish the Ninth Circuit out here could be reformed.
