Outside of 13 and maybe 32, that doesn’t seem too crazy.

Contrast with “California Supreme Court Gives Gavin Newsom Green Light to Gerrymander”.

One of the many differences between CA and TX.

The rotting corpse of their democracy should be left out on the deserts of west Texas to be picked over by coyotes and vultures.

This is good but what were the consequences for the Dem legislators who fled and willfully abandoned their duties?

Time to draw another one. The Newscum State Scumbag Court is working for the DemonRATS again. They told Newscum to just make up the rules as he goes along.

The redistricting map of California - Newsom’s “answer” to redistricting in Texas - will be voted on by “the people.”

OF COURSE the California Supreme Court approved it - I’d be shocked if they didn’t.

It most likely will pass the vote as California’s vote base = idiot voters + vote fraud + illegals voting.

How Newsom beat a recall.

Florida, Missouri, Ohio and other red states next.
Democrats already have a massive NINE states with ZERO GOP reps in congress, they don't have much room to gerrymander.

Once again, zero accountability. Republicans just don’t believe in it.

The next Democrat move will be in court... watch for them to get an injunction to at least delay these new districts until some arbitrary deadline that prevents their use in 2026... not that any of that should surprise us.

It will be very interesting to see how they can argue in Federal court that Texas redistricting is bad while at the same time argue that California redistricting is good.............

They work for the democrats. This got a lot of visibility. It was like dragging someone over the finish line. Kicking and screaming

Oh, that’s easy. They’ll claim any GOP districts were drawn from racism and suppression while Democrats draw districts that promote equal representation.

While the map is interesting, show me the percentage of Dem voters and GOP voters in each district. Then you’ll understand what all the squiggly lines are there for.
