I hope they do, but even if they do, that is still only a net zero gain and California has to put theirs to a public vote. Texas will get sued for the redistricting being blatantly along racial lines but it will have to play out in the courts which is a crapshoot at this point. Its still a net loss in the end imo. They should have kept the quorum break up imo. Yes, I know they were being penalized but there was enough external support infrastructure to get them through that.
