Newsom holding a rally in Texas after redistricting win in California
The Hill ^ | 11/06/25 | Ryan Mancini

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) will hold a rally in Texas on Saturday opposing the state’s redistricting efforts alongside local Democratic lawmakers, days after Golden State voters backed a measure to redraw their own congressional districts.

Texas was the first of several red states that followed President Trump’s directive to change their congressional maps ahead of the 2026 midterms. Though some blue states considered redrawing their maps through the legislatures, Newsom elected to have voters choose if California should proceed with his plan.

“California stepped up. Now, we are taking this fight across the country — helping Democrats in other states push back against Trump’s election rigging,” Newsom said in a statement to Politico.

The Hill has reached out to Newsom’s office for a comment.

On Tuesday, California voters approved Proposition 50, allowing lawmakers to rework the Golden State’s maps. This allows Democrats in the state to potentially gain five House seats in 2026. California represents the first state where Democrats have been able to successfully redistrict midcycle in response to the GOP’s moves.

I am personally very surprised this won and won so big, but I never fail to be astounded by how stupid CA voters are. I can’t find a nicer way to state it.

He can invite the anal contents to move to California to make room for the California conservatives moving to Texas. Win-win!

I think it's good that Gavin Newsom is doing this because he's annoying Trump voters.

Maybe we'll pause for a minute and stop playing Grand Theft Auto on PS5 and vote for JD Vance in 2028.

Texas needs to pass a law against out of staters interfering with our political system.

Wonder if that would be Constitutional.

Newscum, like many democRATs and DemoKKKrats, are feeling the pinch since the USAID graft $$$ spigot is gone. Just beware if he tries to sell you stock in the Kalifornia Super Train To Nowhere.
