The Democrats have an ace-in-the-hole. It takes 21/31 state senators to consider redistricting. At best, the GOP seems to have 19 or 20 votes, 1 or 2 short. Demos know how to win. Even if they have a minority of the votes, their passion can overcome their numerical weakness.

I think the GOP has this one inn the bag....else they wouldn't have called the session...Why hand the Dems a PR victory....watch the minority Dems...they weren't happy about the last boycott....

Properly managed, they can find a couple Dims to go along with them - then perhaps change parties. I think there'll be at least a couple Dims tired of being in the minority pretty soon, with no hope of regaining control of the legislature anytime soon.
