Texas Democrats Flee State to Block GOP Congressional Redistricting – AG Paxton Calls for Their Arrest

I still don't get why gerrymandering is allowed.

Both "sides" should oppose it. There is no question that it hurts the country - it makes both parties more extreme.
I remember Congressman Martin Frost's (D) District. It covered South Dallas and ran all the way to Waco Texas 95 miles running down I-35 switching sides of the highway to hit more Democrat areas all the way.. The Democrat gerrymandering in NY was so bad a judge eventually drew the map. So it has always happened with both parties.

It has, and I oppose it whenever it's done.
 
Arrest them? For what crime? The Reds are illegally redistricting to keep the state that Trump's ignorance is losing. Wht should the Dems help the Reds steal an election?

The Texas AG says the intentional act of breaking quorum can constute abandonment of their office.

Kick the bums out! BTW Flood control was on the agenda. I guess they don't care about the 130 plus people that drowned and preventing it from happening again. Texans will not forget.
