17. If that's what happens, this would be incredible for the country

But I don't have much faith the SCOTUS wouldn't step in in a completely partisan manner and rule, "Because California used the wrong font, their maps get thrown out until they can hold another vote on them in 2028, Texas on the other hand, used an approved font, so theirs are good to implement. Now mail me your "tip" check!"

Yes, but theirs was approved by a vote of the people so TX can't change theirs but CA probably can ChicagoTeamster 22 hrs ago #14
