It may not even be legal for CA to do that.
If they try, a massive lawsuit should be filed.
So they finally got over their collective temper tantrum thinking they proved something. Immature idiots!
Abbott needs to send those Texas Yellow-bellied, Double-Breasted Pushovers back to their butt buddy, the Prickster. Texans don’t want his cowardly little dogies here. They belong to the Chicongo Prixster now. He can make them into Vienna Sausages.
California “retaliated” years ago when it gerrymandered the crap out of its districts before Texas even thought about doing it. The big Dem states do this all the time and the press isn’t interested. But if one Republican state does it, the press screams bloody murder. Now lets see a bunch of other Republican states do it.
CA cant retaliate without the voters VOTING for what they want, without a special election which will FAIL because OVERWHELMINGLY the voters in a poll show by a 30 point margin that they do NOT want this, NewSCUM is done and he knows it he knows this wont pass
Commiefornia already cheated in the 2024 election, doesnt take THREE WEEKS to count votes in congressional races, they “counted” til they “won”
They said this morning that the evil Dark Kenyan Fascist was turning over the communist attack on America’s redistricting effort over to his own little Alfalafa Harris, Eric the Racist Holder. Washington is starting to look like the Little Rascals again.
DemonicRATS in Commiefornia hold 82% of Congressional seats even though 38% voted for Trump. A 43-9 makeup means 5 times more demonicRATSthanRepublican<>s
Texas Republicans hold 66% of Congressional seats while 56% voted for Trump. Texas has a 25-12 advantage . Or roughly 2 times as many Republicans.
Quod erat demonstrandum
Commiefornia is less of a democracy.
I thought they were going to be arrested
Hopefully more Red states follow Texas’s example since they can do a lot more gerrymandering than blue states (which are largely already maxed out on gerrymandering)
Though Republican officials are wimps so they probably won’t
They are in the process in Missouri. KC area. Will toss one Demwit.
Obummer should run for CA Guv’nuh.
Get that ‘Muricuh hatin’ Commie ball rollin’ once again!
HOW MUCH DID THE LAST “SPECIAL ELECTION” IN CALIF COST?
“Abbott needs to send those Texas Yellow-bellied, Double-Breasted Pushovers back to their butt buddy, the Prickster. “
Then no quorum, no redistricting.
Pretty amazing that it's just peachy that California is acting on Congressional redistricting because of what Texas is doing, but back in December 2020, the Supreme Court, except for Alito and Thomas, told 21 states including Texas that they had no standing in how Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin conducted the Presidential election in their respective states:
155, ORIG. TEXAS V. PENNSYLVANIA, ET AL.
The State of Texas’s motion for leave to file a bill of complaint is denied for lack of standing under Article III of the Constitution. Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections. All other pending motions are dismissed as moot.
“If they try, a massive lawsuit should be filed.”
In Texas, or some other staunchly conservative district. Because the democrats taught us, venue only matters for ensuring the judicial activism goes your way.
There’s already a pretty serious movement in California to separate it into two states. Newsome’s “enhanced Gerrymandering” plan could give new energy to it.
Republicans may be able to keep the map off of the ballot.
The new proposed map is illegal because it wasn't drawn by the California Citizens Redistricting Commission, which is the only body currently authorized by law to draw district maps. Putting this map on the same ballot as the amendment to change the law is illegal piggybacking because the map isn't legal until the amendment is passed.
This has to be a two-step process: first they have a special election to amend the constitution, then if the amendment passes they can call another special election to adopt the new map that is now lawfully authorized.
The way they are doing it now, the illegal map cannot be on the same ballot that changes the authority to draw the maps because current law governs the map that would be put on the ballot.

Others have posted that it’s not possible to make the changes before the midterms for the reasons you mention.
CA Dems are trying to make up for the illegal alien House seats they’re in the process of losing.
