I believe this same thing happened in Texas a couple of years ago. Dem Senators skedaddled across the border to New Mexico in an effort to stop the legislative process.

I believe this same thing happened in Texas a couple of years ago. Dem Senators skedaddled across the border to New Mexico in an effort to stop the legislative process.

Theissue was re-districting. And they did it twice. The House bussed to Ardmore, OK; the Senate flew to Albuquerque.

The press loved it. They thought it was "cute".

The voters hated it. They thought it was "bullshit".

And the Dems got their butts kicked in the next election.

TX Senate Democrats fled in 2004 to avoid a vote on redistricting. They can’t pull that trick now with GOP supermajorities in both houses of the TX legislature.
