    Texas Dems conditioned their return on a promise by California to similarly redraw their districts in favor of their own party.

    Politely requesting a source on that being the actual claim of victory because that’s absolutely unhinged. If was the last thing on the whiteboard then it was the only thing and everyone regretted it was written.

      “California” can’t promise shit. All they can do (and this is Newsom’s plan) is to put on the ballot in November for California to eliminate their independent board that draws the district map. No idea if that would pass or not but it would be up to California voters, not the governor or Democratic Party.
