"Oct. 6 marks the beginning of the voting period for California's Proposition 50 special election, which asks voters whether to implement new, partisan congressional maps for the 2026, 2028, and 2030 elections. If Prop. 50 passes, California would forgo the current maps drawn by a 14-member group comprising five Republicans, five Democrats, and four commissioners not affiliated with the two major parties."
"Instead, new maps would favor Democrats in California's congressional elections as a way to counter similar, Republican-led plans elsewhere in the country to boost the GOP. If you're having trouble visualizing what, exactly, that could look like, these interactive maps help show both the big-picture, statewide changes and the changes to your own congressional district. Big changes at a glance This map, created by the Associated Press, shows the current and proposed California congressional district boundaries."
Voting begins Oct. 6 for California Proposition 50 special election. Proposition 50 asks voters to implement new, partisan congressional maps for the 2026, 2028, and 2030 elections. Current maps were drawn by a 14-member group made up of five Republicans, five Democrats, and four unaffiliated commissioners. If Prop. 50 passes, California would forgo those maps and adopt new maps designed to favor Democrats as a response to Republican-led plans elsewhere intended to boost the GOP. Interactive maps from the Associated Press and CalMatters display statewide boundary shifts and district-level changes, including voter percentage gains and losses by party.
