You seem to be striking a (d)ifferent tone than you were a few years ago above.
How predictable.
Don’t ever change. (Not that anyone believes you would)

I’ve seen the math. Not sure CA, MD and a few others will put you guys ahead after all the red states do their thing.
But i thought you were “against” gerrymandering.
I know I am.

When word got out that Texas might undertake an extraordinary mid-decade redistricting at Donald Trump’s behest, a handful of top California Democratic operatives floated an idea to Rep. Zoe Lofgren: Could California respond in kind?
Lofgren, the chair of California’s 43-member Democratic delegation, consulted in June with a trusted data expert who dismissed it as absurd — a foolhardy end-run around the state’s popular redistricting panel with no guarantee of yielding enough blue seats to fully offset Texas. Deterred by those misgivings, California Democrats instead spent weeks putting up a front, dangling the threat of a countermove without making any real plans to do so.
I have dimocrats actually consulting experts and running internal polling as far back as June.
What else you got??
Who started it again??
how could it offset texas in june, when texas didnt get the idea from trump until july.
Allan
I think that’s the point. How did Trump “open that up” as you said when California was talking about it before Texas?
texas moved before california because they could.
california needed voter approval whereas texas did not.
Allan
california was consulting experts and doing internal polling in June.
trump didn’t make the call to Texas until July (by your own admission)
Try to keep up.

but they still had to have voters approval and that would in November.
texas whic did have that impediment voted their map in the summer.

Stack and pack the white people! Oh, oops… that would violate the recent SCOTUS decision. Let me rephrase:
Stack and pack the Republicans.
So…..again….. it was California that started all this redistricting crap, and not Trump like you stated and by your own admission.
