GOP members in California have initiated a legal action in federal court on Wednesday, contesting a high-stakes redistricting measure that could flip as many as five congressional seats to the benefit of the Democratic party.
This initiative, the ballot measure, received approval by voters Tuesday night, marking a decisive victory for the Democratic side. The plan temporarily gives the authority to draw congressional districts to the state's legislative body, allowing it to adopt maps that will help Democrats gain five seats in the House of Representatives.
The plan is a targeted countermeasure to partisan redistricting in the state of Texas, where GOP lawmakers, following the US president's direction, have carved out several new safe Republican districts.
