New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) stood with quorum-breaking Texas Democrats and announced plans to redraw the state’s congressional map: “If Republicans are willing to rewrite these rules to give themselves an advantage, then... we must do the same.”
Replies
No doubt! Every “blue” state must do the same… the MAGAts have declared the rules of game - it’s about time Dems started playing by them!

I hope somebody with more gravitas grabs attention away from her. Her interviews after her news conference Monday revealed a bag of clichés. Totally unimpressive. If she, and trite Democrats like her, are all that Amerika's got to fight back, then tRump's dictatorship will only deepen. Fools.

I'm a recent arrival to MN. Our current state legislature is almost equally divided. I don't know if we could get a redistricting ordinance passed. It may come up, but not a sure thing.

We have to realize we are trapped in an abusive relationship with Trump and his GOP sycophants. You do not free yourself from abuse by being nice, rather you fight like your life depends on it. Because,as their agenda progresses, our lives or the lives of someone we love may be at stake.

She’s got the right idea but she’s wrong. We need to stand together for sure but we cannot fix this by following Texas’ lead. We need to stop their gerrymandering without committing the same wrongs in other states.

If this becomes the norm, the voters lose the right to decide their representatives. They will effectively be chosen by their state legislators at least the majority will be. This is yet another erosion of the constitution. Side with the TX Dems but don’t join the gerrymandering game

What are we going to do , trump will not leave the White House, if he is impeached? He said he will Federalize the city. he have Pete, Pam, Mike Johnson gay ass, all his people in place, and ready.

Honest question: what would that actually do in such a blue state as New York? Doesn’t NY always go to the democrats?
aug 7, 2025, 2:01 am • 0 0 • view
In terms of the EC in presidential elections, yes, but redistricting can create more Dem House seats to override the Republican House majority, the way the Republicans want to do in Texas. As Hochul says, "Fight fire with fire."
