Gavin Newsom announced today that he is in fact going to
make a move to redraw the congressional district lines within the
formerly great state of California despite the fact that he needs to
figure away around voter approved law in order to do so. He is that
desperate to piss in Donald Trump's corn flakes.
The
A G, Rob Bonta, has said that he has told the governor that he believes
a ballot item, presented directly to the voters, with the new
boundaries all drawn up and ready to go, would be legally acceptable
despite the fact that CA law specifies that district lines can only be
redrawn once every ten years immediately after the federal census and
further that the lines must be drawn by an independent citizen
commission and NOT by the legislature or political big-wigs. I guess
you can believe any pack of bullshit if you WANT to believe it. Bonta
made the announcement in a news conference on Wednesday. It should be
noted that Bonta approves the language and title of ballot
initiatives.
Bonta blamed
Texas for the whole thing. He is sort of ignoring that what is going
on in Texas is completely legal under existing law in Texas.
