You got it. Since there can be redistricting at any time, the court requires redistricting in its opinion and the GOP still controls Texas, I suspect the Republicans will draw an entirely new map that gives them even more seats.

We had to wait 10 yrs to re-district, when here in Texas the GOP was the majority party. The dimwits had become a very minority party yet we republicans had to put up the the lefty scumbags. Thank God for Tom Delay.
