Newsom Celebrates Redistricting Win, Eyes 2028 and Texas

California Governor Gavin Newsom celebrated the passage of Proposition 50, which aims to counteract Texas's new Republican-favored congressional districts, by securing voter approval for redistricting in California. The measure, supported by nearly 64% of voters, allows California to redraw districts to add five more Democratic seats, directly challenging Texas's GOP gains. Newsom's visit to Houston and his advocacy highlight his broader efforts to influence redistricting and oppose gerrymandering, with implications for national politics and potential presidential ambitions.
