Can the states that actually have money sue Texas?

Except this redistricting is a voter led initiative- it will go through IF the voters approve.

They got nerve, they're redistricing, but they want to block california from redistricing😳 and if the judge decides in their favor that says precedent, which will stop them from redistricting CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS🤣

Not necessarily. State law controls this process, and the law of California is different from the law of Texas.

Different state laws as they pertain to this sort of stuff. California' redistricting rules are enshrined into their state constitution; Texas' is not. I suspect California Republicans are suing to stop the special election, calling it unconstitutional.

I'm afraid Dems would have to learn to ignore MAGA-controlled SCOTUS as well, while giving bogus excuses as well. Just like drump(stein) does. If MAGA can do this, why can't they, especially if it's about saving the democracy in the country?

It's only a matter of time until SCOTUS determines that there are TWO standards of law. One for MAGA and another for everyone else.

Republicans can make up all the districts they want, their voters are by majority pissed off that their Representatives have relinquished their power to Donald Trump and basically doing nothing for their voters. Republicans can still vote against Trump aligned Reps.

As Governor he has the right to put a referendum on the ballot to ask the people to determine what they want to do about redistricting.

California should go ahead with the plan, have a vote in november to get the constituents aproval, without implementing the redistricting yet, while still in court, but the aproval has to be taken this November

No surprise. In California, it requires a special election. In Texas, just the Rethuglicans in the State House can decide. So, yeah, block the special election. We aren't fighting on equal terms.

I hear Newsom is shooting for 5. Is that because 5 is all there is? If that's the case, fine. But if there are more, he should teach those MFrs a lesson and go for all.

aug 19, 2025, 7:32 pm • 7 1 • view

Actually there are nine. I wish he would take them all. Seems like he’s shooting for five to match Texas, but we need all nine.

aug 19, 2025, 7:56 pm • 9 1 • view

Yes, all possible seats. 1. Other red states may do it, while other blue states lack the courage, or are limited by procedure or law (though procedure/law shouldn't matter). 2. FAFO. If he only tries to match TX, he's playing nice with bullies.
