2. This is why redistricting by a non-partisan commission was so necessary

According to the latest news, CA redistricting - CA high court has unanimously decided that the maps drawn by the non-partison commission, stands (according to L.A. Times print) - will give the CA Senate the 2/3rd majority so crap like this will be a thing of the past. The redistricting map shows Democrats will win, at least, two additional Senate seats.

This is why I voted for the Republican drawn up Proposition 11. I felt we needed to take a chance with a commission since redistricting had become a joke, and our CA legislators* were entrenched in their seats - especially Republicans. It was time we shook it up a bit.

We need to get rid of the Republicans in our government so we can move CA forward. I bet the Repubs aren't happy now for having put Prop 11 on the ballot in 2008. They've never learned: be careful what you wish for.
