If the Pennsylvania case goes to the GOP, I don't think the Supremes will even take up the Texas case. It's even weaker than Pa.

The case for dumping the Texas plan is weaker than Pennsylvania I agree, with the possible exception of the Bonilla district, which is where the dissenting opinion weighed in, based on grounds other than partisan gerrymandering. But the reach of the Penn decision may reach Texas, although I think the odds are against it, but not overwhelmingly so. Two judges are on that court are rather unpredictible, even if both are rather partisan Pubbies in their naughty little hearts.
