Gov. Gavin Newsom has a tight timeline to get his proposed congressional maps on the ballot for a November special election. Republicans are trying to slow him down.
The alternative is the Dems adopting a legitimate progressive platform. Liberals will stand on their heads before they support a progressive candidate. Case-in-point Zohran Mamdani.
There’s a clear path for gaining the support of the the greater American public. They kneecapped Bernie in 2016 and they’ll do it again and again until we make it clear we won’t budge. If Newsome runs for president we are virtually guaranteed a Vance presidency in 2028. Mark my words.
It doesn’t, it just makes people like the OP feel better about themselves. The ‘greater American public’ have time and time again shown they are not interested in a progressive candidate. Even Biden and Obama in the grand scale of things are not progressives.
Unfortunately for you reddit or lemmy are not indicative of real life, otherwise Harris would have won with 90% of the vote.
If it takes a neoliberal sleazebag like Newsom to get rid of the fascists then so be it. This idea that politicians have to be perfect and 100% align with your views is ridiculous and frankly amounts to pure stupidity.
Then again you said you didn’t vote for Harris, so your opinion is kind of worthless on this subject. People like you are partially responsible for everything we’re seeing now.
Don’t give me that condescending ‘mate’ or ‘friend’ nonsense. You and those like you are cowards who would rather sit out an election because one candidate isn’t 100% perfect, not caring for what might happen because of it. You’re pathetic.

How does adopting more progressive candidates in California solve gerrymandering in Texas?

Haha aw thanks mate I needed a good laugh today!
Glad I could help.

The feeling is mutual, friend.
