Cool. So CA doesn’t do it, Republicans push this to SCOTUS as they do with literally everything they don’t like, and then they give Texas the go-ahead with a timeframe that’s too short for CA to respond in turn… :/
Sounds like Indiana doesn’t have the votes for redistricting, for now. Cheeto Mussolini is big mad about that. He posted on Tr*th Social and got one of the Republicans opposing it swatted.
Pritzker in Illinois was going to push forward a redistricting for that state, too, if Indiana went ahead. The map looked hilarious and would’ve essentially shut the GOP out of politics in Illinois altogether.
I don’t believe CA already has potential districts drawn up, but I believe Texas already does so an overturned ruling would not need much time for Texas to implement their plan while CA would need to actually draw the new districts.
Nevermind, it looks like the plan CA has included already considered districts
Last I read I think that provision was struck before the vote since Texas had already moved ahead? I’m not sure though. It would be very funny if due to the timing, California can redistrict anyway.
California’s law was written so that it would only be used if Texas did gerrymander their districts. Last I read.

I’m willing to bet any timeline that is too short for CA would also be too short for Texas.
I think also the stipulation applied to other states also. Not just Texas. Others, like Indiana, are talking about redistricting too.

Illinois is already heavily gerrymandered. More so than Texas even.

The CA proposed maps were a part of the legislation.
You think they’ll let that stop them? These folks are the kings of hypocrisy and double standards.
Hypocrisy is one thing, but the ability to actually print stuff is another entirely. They are, fortunately, still bound by the laws of physics.
