we’re going to get endless bad faith bullshit from now until November but I’m putting my marker down: the CA redistricting is going to pass people are sick and fucking tired of Republicans changing the rules and are done with “when they go low, we go high”
When they go low they are perfectly lined up for a knee to the face.
yep!
I think so too. It’s an off off year election, the electorate is going to be very skewed towards high engagement voters.
So if the people who are hyper Newsom aren't just bots and are genuine voters: Imagine how fast they'll pivot to say Pritzker in 28 when he is front and center on national TV talking smack. Voters don't just want to fight, they specifically want to cull the prisoner dilemma garbage.

I'm hoping we start to see a lot of "when they go low, we go just high enough to rain mountains of shit down upon them"
From your keyboard to reality--and fuck the sanctimonious, manipulative fuckers who want people to "remain civil" (but only towards the fascists) and "respect norms" (that have never served the public).
And then can we make Gavin Newsom retire?
How many Texas seats to Republicans pick up and how many cali seats for Dems? Is it a net wash?
Yeah I think it's going to pass and easily too.
Getting glossy mailers every day with some form of "Cheating is wrong no matter who does it" pablum
"When they go low, we go high" And they they punch you right in the junk, as hard as they can, BECAUSE THERE AREN'T ACTUALLY ANY RULES, AND THAT'S HOW THEY WIN.
A mailer went out last week implying that the League of Women Voters of California was opposing Prop 50 Then I went to the LWVC website a few days ago and the first thing I see is a full-page popup saying "that wasn't us" lwvc.org/lwvc-not-aff...
When they go low, drop the depth charges.
We’ve already gotten several flyers moaning about how horrible the bill is, it’s an affront to tradition or against the natural order of things, blah blah blah. I’m voting yes; I think it’s about bloody time the Democrats hit back.
"when they go low, we kick them in the oompa loompas"
You can’t afford to go high when the other side does everything they possibly can to ensure their desired result- legalities and rules be damned. So now it’s more like, when they go low, we go low and drag them to the bowels of hell to be dropped off.
I have gotten so many anti-gerrymandering fliers in the mail already. I fear that my recycling bin will be nothing but these mailers by November.
Agreed, but I received four anti-prop 50 flyers in the past week and no “vote yes” flyers. Anecdotal of course but a reminder that the “no” campaign is very well funded and the “yes” campaign can’t just bank on CA’s partisan lean.
Republicans have sunk so low that going low is in response is still higher ground. I’m rooting for California
Thanks! Though hope my California is just leading the way and other states will join to counter Rethuglicans going so much lower than they used to do.
I don't think we ever did the whole "they go low we go high" thing. More like "they go low, we roll over on our backs and show our bellies"
