GOP File Lawsuit Against Boundary Changes Measure
GOP members in the state of California have initiated a federal lawsuit on Wednesday, contesting a high-stakes redistricting measure that has the potential to flip as many as five House seats to the benefit of the Democratic party.
Electorate-Backed Measure Grants Authority to Legislature
This initiative, the ballot measure, was approved by the electorate on Tuesday evening, marking a clear win for Democrats. The plan temporarily gives the power to draw congressional districts to the California legislature, allowing it to adopt district maps that will help the Democratic party pick up five seats in the House of Representatives.
Response to Gerrymandering in Texas
The plan is a targeted countermeasure to gerrymandering in Texas, where GOP lawmakers, at the US president’s behest, have created a number of new districts favoring Republicans.
