TX-10 and -11 are fucking ridiculous.  Fuck these pieces of shit.

That whole area from northern Travis County up to Georgetown is fucked on the proposed map.

Say you get in your car from North Austin and head up to Ikea. You start out in TX-37, drive a couple of miles through TX-10, then a couple more in TX-11, maybe pass one Exit in TX-17, and you finally reach your destination, only a few miles away in TX-31.

Communities of interest, eh?

  • Western Travis/Round Rock is paired up with Livingston in the Piney Woods of East Texas.
  • Round Rock/Pflugerville hangs with Midland/Odessa.
  • Cedar Park/Round Rock goes along with Corsicana.

Yeah, buddy.

If Texas moves forward with this plan, and then CA does the same thing in the reverse, there will be screams from the Texas GOP MAGA types about how Newsom is breaking the law.

The glasses are a Clark Kent-type giveaway. He’s got a burnt orange superhero suit under that shirt.

id be curious to see the R/D splits. they're assuming all R's will stay R, or factoring in losing a certain % ?

doubtful those numbers would ever be public

I know this is a stupid question but how is mid-decade redistricting based on nothing whatsoever even legal? 

Gov. Hot Wheels:

a man is smoking a cigarette in a dark room and saying `` i will make it legal '' .

In case anyone is wondering if their shit changed

Northern Travis and southern Williamson counties, this is who your future Congress critters will actually represent. Only the core of Austin will really have its voice heard. Everyone else in the area will be ignored.

One voice against five others. The extreme nature of this gerrymander truly is taxation without representation.

Districts should have to be quadrilaterals with an exception granted for state boundaries.  
 

Say no to squiggly lines. 

one thing is for sure, they shouldn't be drawn by partisans. like a lot of things in this country, the lines should be drawn by a fair and independent body whose only goal is equitable distribution of voters per seat. we certainly be where are today if such a thing had happened before now
