TEXAS REDISTRICTING
Updates and News about the 2011 Redistricting Cycle in the Lone Star State.
This website's goal is to try to make sure the redistricting process is as transparent and accessible as possible to the public. Hopefully, it will be of some use to a broad range of interested parties, both lawyers and non-lawyers.
Have questions, comments, suggestions, additional content, or a redistricting joke (or two)? Feel free to contact me:

By several accounts, talks between the State of Texas and redistricting plaintiffs have reached an impasse (for now). But the same sources say the situation remains fluid, and things could change very quickly, particularly with all of the key parties together in Washington on Tuesday for closing arguments in the preclearance case.
The Austin Chronicle has more coverage.
Burnt Orange Report also offers some commentary about possible divide and conquer efforts by the state.

UPDATE:
The San Antonio Express-News has more coverage and reaction from some of the players here.
