but i think my position is consistent with what this court said in the mcpherson case about the authority of the stitt legislatures to prescribe rules for electors. if they want to take the authority back, as they did in the michigan piece of legislation at issue in mcpherson, you bet they can do that. and if the state tries to stop them from taking it back, that's a constitutional problem. >> tell mr. clement that the states set up this independent commission and the independent commission has the veto power on the state's redistricting. in other words, the state can do redistricting and then it submitsz it to the independent commission and the independent commission can say no go back do it again. >> i guess it depends a little bit on the details of how that works and who's got ultimate last say in the matter. >> they have the veto. that's who has the veto. the independent commission. >> is it a veto that can be overridden or just a permanent veto? >> does it matter? >> i think it does. or at least arguably does. at the end of the day -- let me say two things about that. one is that wou
