Texas Democrats, Gavin Newsom and Redistricting Gambits
California Governor Gavin Newsom announced a special election for the "Election Rigging Response Act" to counter GOP redistricting gains in Texas. The move prompted Texas Democrats, who had fled the state to block local legislation, to consider returning to the Capitol. Critics argue Newsom's move is unconstitutional showboating intended to gain national attention rather than a viable legal strategy.
