People hate gerrymandering, even when it's a tit-for-tat effort to save what's left of our representative democracy. California could very easily screw this up—they voted in favor of "forced prison labor" just last year!

Supposedly it's got a built in sunset provision after the 2030 election, which is when the new Census is taken. It reverts to the redistricting commission for the next Constitutionally mandated redistricting that will apply to the 2032 elections Will the voters believe that will happen? Who knows?

Very easily. The opposition is already sending mailers.

Glossy mailer funded by a billionaire’s son telling you not to vote for redistricting because “Independence”
