Ex governor Richards blasts Perry over Texas redistricting sessions
Former Texas governor Arn Richards criticized Governor Rick Perry for calling costly special sessions on congressional redistricting amid a financial crisis. Richards called it political maneuvering while Democrats filed a Voting Rights Act suit and the Texas Supreme Court denied a bid to compel back runaway lawmakers. Democratic senators who fled to Albuquerque to block the plan were praised by Richards. DeLay urged lawmakers to redraw lines with at least 20 Republicans to reflect the GOP majority.
