I'm afraid things won't change as fast as I would like. If the Louisiana residents who decide to stay register to vote here, instead of back home, that will definately effect Tom Delay's district.
The governor's race is going to be interesting. We have a most votes wins system (not a run off), so Rick Perry (republican) (and Bush's buddy) is facing Strayhorn (independent) (long time Texas political family insider and mother of Scott Mcclellan sp? white house spokesman), Kinky Friedman (independent), and a Democrat probably Chris Bell (one of the guys who lost his seat to Delay's redistricting plan and brought successful ethics charges against Delay). I bet that sentence makes zero sense.
It will be fascinating to see who's vote cancels whom's.
