Earlier, we told you about the new congressional map from Texas that will add around five Republican seats in the US House.

The governor of California, Gavin Newson, just responded to the new Texas map, and he is very unhappy about it:

Donald Trump asks for 5 seats and Greg Abbott automatically bends the knee. The 2026 election is being rigged. California won’t sit back and watch this happen.

You can bet California and other blue states have already begun working on new congressional maps that will eliminate Republican districts to try and offset the moves by Texas.

UPDATE: For context, here’s something from End Wokeness on X:

Democrats rigged the maps to maximize their share of Congressional seats. It is absolutely justified for us to do it too.

California:
????40% of the statewide vote
????17% of the seats (9 out of 52)

Massachusetts:
????35% of the statewide vote
????0% of the seats (0 out of 9)

Connecticut:
???? 38% of the statewide vote
???? 0% of the seats (0 out of 5)

New York:
????42% of the statewide vote
????26.9% of the seats (7 out of 26)

New Jersey:
???? 43% of the statewide vote
???? 25% of the seats (3 out of 12)

Maryland:
???? 38% of the statewide vote
???? 12% of the seats (1 out of 8)

New Mexico:
???? 44% of the statewide vote
???? 0% of the seats (0 out of 3)

Hawaii:
???? 30% of the statewide vote
???? 0% of the seats (0 out of 2)

Oregon:
???? 42% of the statewide vote
???? 16% of the seats (1 out of 6)

Washington:
???? 38% of the statewide vote
???? 20% of the seats (2 out of 10)

Rhode Island:
???? 38% of the statewide vote
???? 0% of the seats (0 out of 2)

He’s absolutely right. Democrats created gerrymandering, and now suddenly they are angry when they perceive it being used against them. Hilarious.
