Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

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.
~~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
The CA proposed maps were a part of the legislation.
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.
Illinois is already heavily gerrymandered. More so than Texas even.
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.
