Where was the outrage when Marty Frost in 1991 concocted a masterpiece of redistricting for partisan advantage.

Even the judges who wrote the opinion were forced to concede that any party that gains control of statewide offices has a chance to change things.

This editorial conveniently fails to mention that passage.

Here is the one comment the judges wrote that I must agree with more than any other:

If minority voters are hurt by the new districts, the judges wrote, it is not because of their race but because they are Democrats, and that is not illegal.

Maybe the RATs need to understand they are not the major party in Texas anymore.
