The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected a bid by California Republicans to block a new congressional map. This allows the state to move forward with the new map that could potentially allow Democrats to flip five seats. Here's more from @abc.

So the South Carolina Elections Commission dropped a new "mascot" named Marky.
They neglected to mention his older brother who actually runs the show in our state.

#Texas Asks #SCOTUS to Clear Way for #Republican-Friendly Congressional Map
State officials are seeking to use a newly redrawn map for the 2026 #midterms, part of a nationwide #redistricting push by #Trump.
The court requested that the #CivilRights groups that had challenged the map respond to Texas’ request by Monday at 5PM.

Of course it did
#SCOTUS on Friday temporarily blocked a lower court ruling that found #Texas’ 2026 congressional #redistricting plan pushed by #Trump likely discriminates on the basis of #race.
The order signed by Justice #Alito will remain in place at least for the next few days while the court considers whether to allow the new map favorable to #Republicans to be used in the midterm #elections.

In Utah, a little army is getting signatures for a petition to allow the GOP to gerrymander the state even more than it already is. They are lying through their teeth--as policy, apparently--telling people the petition is anti-ICE. A network of people has stepped up to follow them around and inform people about what they're actually signing.
Also: They mention Sarah McConkie. I think maybe I dated her aunt in college.

"McConkie said the volunteers are trained to keep their calm, act with kindness and respect and not to be abusive or confrontational. They stand near the gatherers, and if the voter approaching the signature gatherer has questions, the signs held by the BURNN volunteer have a QR code where the voter can read the text of the initiative."
Very cool response to #GOP-paid signature gatherers lying about the purpose of the petitions.
