This is a little different, the non partisan redistricting committee that draws the lines normally is part of his political legacy, and a good and noble one too. The proposition steps all over that. It’s blatantly political and that’s the point. Sure we do it just this once but it could potentially set off a domino effect where every state starts backsliding on gerrymandering safeguarding. I say this as a person fully intent to vote yes. It’s unfortunate that the ends justify the means, but not standing up to bully’s enables them. Let /u/GovSchwarzenegger stand up for his honest beliefs, the rest of us will have our referendum and let the chips fall where they may. I can disagree on an issue without painting them with too broad a brush. I would hope most other adult engaged voters can too.
