California Republicans have a simple rebuttal when Democrats blame Texas To launch the gerrymandering arms’ congress race: Two mistakes do not make right.

This means that they have to admit both mistakes – a move that is contrary to their party leader, president Donald TrumpAnyone who wants GO to redirect congress regions in the red countries to strengthen its chances of preserving the majority in the congress next fall.

In Texas, Trump said he was “entitled” in five additional places on Gop House. These maneuvers have triggered California Revenge Effortswhich are today expected to put democratic MPs on the November special election newsletter.

California cards supported by the government. Gavin NewsomIt will compensate for the Texas map by tilting the five Republican congress regions to the Democrats.

“I have not heard a single republican in California, who is serving in the state legislative body, protects Texas,” said the assembly Carl DemaioRepublican from San Diego and an unsettled supporter of Trump. “Gerimandjo is wrong, no matter who does it, whether it is made by a red state or by a blue state. Politicians who manipulate the lines of their areas is wrong.”

DEMAIO, along with the leader of the minorities of the James Gallagher Assembly, on Monday introduced a resolution calling for Congress to propose a change in the Constitution requiring all countries to use a A non -party committee for redistributionAs the California Constitution is required as voters passed a vote measure, creating this process in 2010, all GOP assembly signed.

“When does it stop?” Senator Tony Strickland, the Huntington Beach Republic, said, warned that the Gerimander race to the bottom would lead to a “destructive country” and “chaos” by promoting redistribution every two years. Instead, he said that all countries should accept the California model, where cards are downloaded every 10 years by an independent committee for the redistribution of citizens.

“What we currently have right now should be the model and the gold standard that the rest of the country will follow,” he said.

He was among several California Republicans who this week brought a case against the state Above the Newsom’s hurry to put his voting measure to voters. California Supreme Court Late Wednesday Rdiscard their complaintS

Regardless of the drawn areas, as a result of the Democrats winning 43 of the 52nd places in the state, they also attracted criticism from Trump and Vice President JD Vance, who said the cards were unfairly tilted against the Republicans.

Researchers have found that cards give Democrats a slight advantage of some measures, but are competitive with others.

What do Republicans say in the congress

Several California Republicans in Congress have also called for the termination of redistribution wars. Their motivations include the preservation of the voter representatives as well as the preservation of their seats.

Reporter Kevin Kili, a Republican of Rocklin, has introduced a bill in Congress that will ban the redistribution of mid-decades across the country, an effective child among countries. The scattered 3rd Keli Congress, which extends nearly 500 miles through the conservative area of East Sierra, will become a much smaller one, which includes more liberal suburbs of the Sacramento according to the Democrats plan.

On Tuesday, when the house chairman Mike Johnson, a Louisian Republic, criticized NEWSOM’s efforts, Kili wrote on social media, wanting to be brought to the floor – a long shot at the best case. This would mean canceling Trump’s plans for Texas and weakening Republicans’ chance of sticking to power in Congress.

“Mr. Gorge, these are nice words, but we need action,” Kili said.

Republican representatives. Doug Lamalfa Ouros and reporter Jay Obernolte of Lake Big Bear also spoke against the redistribution of the middle of decades in California and other states, saying that practice creates distrust of voters.

Mat Rexroud, a GOP consultant and a redistribution specialist, said that the California Republicans have the right to insist on independent redistribution across the country and to oppose Gerimander in both the Blue and the Red States. He called the redistributing wars a terrible idea for all, both on principle and raw numerical.

Not only will the Newsom map attract five republican places, it has also removed three competitive areas conducted by Democrats in Southern California. Rexroad is not convinced that Republicans can win seats in Texas under their new cards.

“In addition to the reasons (for independent redistribution), I think it’s a bad trade,” he said.

Other Republicans in California were more cautious to criticize openly supported efforts in Texas. A spokesman Young Kim said the Orange Congress Congress views Newsom’s plan as a “unconstitutional grab of power” and believes that he or she should “focus on dealing with crises that Californians face instead of disposing of the voters and positioning themselves for presidential.”

Speakers of Republican Representatives Tom McClintock, David Vallado, Darrell Isa, Ken Calvert and Vince Fong did not answer questions from Calmatters on time to publish.

Newsom vs Trump

Some GOP MPs are being destroyed when they asked him if they would call Trump directly to retreat to Texas redistribution – a move for which the California Democrats said would encourage them to give up their own and the Green -to -Giers of the Guides to the Civil Rights. Competent and Democrats 11 safe places.

As this case was diverted through the federal courts, the US -General Prosecutor Harmeet Dhilon wrote Texas in July, saying that he needed to redirect his congress cards – Giving Government Greg Abat To convene a special legislative session for this purpose.

“I have not participated in these conversations,” said the leader of minorities in State Senate Brian Jones, a Republican from San Diego, when asked if Trump should also give up the new maps in Texas. “I am not an expert on the Law of Texas or in the Texas Constitution or their legislative power. I concentrate on California.”

In the Senate Election Committee on Tuesday, Democrat Tom Humberg Needles Republican Stephen Choi for the fact that California mistakenly follows the “same condemned actions” of other countries.

“If you condemn what they do in Texas, I suppose you condemn the President of the United States,” Humberg said by Santa Anna. “This is a bold move for a Republican … So I congratulate you on your courage.”

Irvane Choi said he used only the word “condemnation” because the Democrats had.

“What I meant was, let’s not become the bad or part of the bad actors if you condemn them,” he said. “I did not criticize or evaluate (Texas) actions.”

Whether bilateral criticism by California Republicans will help or hurt you can be controversial. The campaign over GOP seats, Rexroad said, will eventually come to a more basic question.

“I don’t know what strategy they can think of because the governor’s strategy is clear,” he said. ““ Choose me or choose Trump. ”
