"We didn't have the votes to bring it up," Mr. Dewhurst said, though he reiterated that Republicans probably would in a second special session because he wouldn't require a two-thirds vote, as is customary, for a bill to be brought up on the Senate floor.

So why did he require the 2/3 vote in this session?

BTW, note the American Statesman's bias ... they claim redistricting is crushed... actually if there is a 3rd special session it is only dleayed for a week.

NO Giving UP. I don't care what the Texas media thinks. Use whatever law enforcement measures necessary to ensure a quorum and pass the redistricting. If Democrats want to file lawsuit after lawsuit afterwards because they were forced by the police back to the Senate floor, so be it. If the Texas media wants to turn that into a scandal and peddle their bias, we can tape their newspaper dispensers shut and launch inquiries into their personal lives.
