For example, in 2018 instead of trying to take advantage of the impending


control of both houses pdf the legislature and the governor's mansion, Colorado Democrats were at the forefront of passing a ballot issue amending the state constitution to create an impartial (3 Dems, 3 Republicans, 4 independents IIRC) reapportioning committee to create the boundaries for the congressional districts after the census.

I am aware off two or three other such constitutional amendments in states where Dems could have just sat back and gerrymandered the other way.
