This is very encouraging. Are you glad you waited a few months to dial things in before getting new clubs?
Boy, you are in for a treat. The difference between 51 and 48 is like the difference between 45 and 35.
Enjoy!
Btw, @Ag with kids, are you OK?
Is that the best you can do? After defending such an unconcionable position for so many years it’s pretty sad that “the Dems in California do it too!!1!1!!” is where you landed, like I give a fuck about what Democrats do, or California. Whom are you even addressing?
It makes me think your media diet must be pretty low calorie.
How about this: if you can’t defend this gerrymander, at least you know your party is going to get to the bottom of this Epstein scandal, amirite.
Wait. You’ve consistently supported a consideration of party support in creating congressional districts.
My opinion is and has always been that partisan gerrymandering is bad, period, at all times and in all places and that party outcomes should *never* be considered in the districting process.
Have you changed your mind? California and Illinois just do what you’ve always advocated for.
The difference is that you and I don’t live in those places. And for the record. I really don’t care about them. I do care that northern Hays county, where I served in an official capacity for about a decade, will be deprived of congressional representation by sharing a rep with places that it has nothing in common with.
Did you not become a more serious person in your mid-late twenties and after you got married and had a kid than you were in your early twenties without a kid? We’ve seen some version of this 1000 times. The difference is that none of those guys were great *before* they got serious.
I wouldn’t be confident about Greg beating Doggett in a May primary with that map. That seems like a coin flip. That said, a primary would surprise me. the was I heard it was that Doggett was hanging it up in 2028 anyway, so maybe he retires sooner. Less likely but still possible is that one of those guys moves and attempts to break the gerrymander.
