Wow they really want a court-drawn map:

The problem is that they know that Bel Edwards will veto it, punting it to courts anyways.

We'll have to see what happens, but if there is an actual resolution during the special session (starts today), i wouldn't put any tactical strategy to it. Rather, just the new Gov showing he doesn't want to fight this losing battle anymore, and the Supreme Court signaling that they and their authority also want it all over.

Oh, Graves was both a close ally of McCarthy and an opponent of the new governor, so I feel there is no qualms about throwing him under the bus.

A bold request,  since a huge part of the legislature would be up if new lines get implemented.  Since the fight seems to only have started,  I doubt this ends up as part of the resolution,  since delays will push us close to the election.  But it will be interesting if it does.

What is this tweet supposed to be about? I'm seeing stuff about an UK special election.
