This redistricting should be seen more as a failsafe or backup to keep bad governance. There are several other reasons why good governance cannot happen.
While what is happening is scary and enraging, it will only matter in elections should there be a movement to actually count the ballots by hand in the next generation.
But there is a secondary reason this is happening. Most Texans have no clue their ballots are miscounted, in primaries and general. Having such districts prevent movement in all parts of the state to question this. This future-proofs the cheating past the 2030s
