Gov. Greg Abbott, the most powerful and well-resourced governor in modern Texas history, was unseated by Gina Hinojosa.
Attorney General Ken Paxton, who in past elections cast off impeachment, indictment and infidelities, fell to James Talarico in his bid for the U.S. Senate.
Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, the iron-fisted ruler of the Texas Senate, went down to a little known state representative.
Republicans lost the attorney general’s office, one of the most influential conservative legal positions in the country. The new congressional map Republicans drew yielded them no gains — in fact, they lost one seat overall.
…nothing could have prepared either side for what happened Tuesday night — a full flip of statewide political control on a scale unseen in this state since Reconstruction
Also re-gerrymander Texas
How about no gerrymandering at fucking all and requiring all states to redraw there maps before the next election to un-gerrymander everything.
Only works if you can cement the process against a Republican wave election that flips everything back to gerrymandered again.
This is why Ranked Choice voting, maybe even a full conversation to Parliamentary elections, is what you really need as part of electoral reform.
Just redrawing districts one more time won’t cut it. This is a systematic failure, not a Bad Maps problem.
