FOX 11 Los Angeles on MSNRedistricting California: Newly proposed congressional maps released
A day after Gov. Gavin Newsom announced plans to redraw California's congressional districts, a proposed map of the new districts was released.
Maps made public Friday afternoon show how California Democrats hope to reconfigure the state’s 52 congressional districts. The plan targets five of California’s nine Republican members of Congress, and is designed to counteract the redistricting efforts in Texas that would favor Republicans.
“Our proposed map was created using traditional redistricting criteria, consistent with guidelines laid out by the California’s Citizen Redistricting Commission,” according to a cover letter from Julie Merz of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee included with the map.
