California could slash 5 GOP US House seats to counter Texas’ move to pad Republican margin
CALIFORNIA, AUG 6 – California Republican Kevin Kiley seeks to end partisan redistricting conflicts nationwide by banning mid-decade map changes that could alter House seat distribution before the 2030 census.
- California Democrats are considering new political maps that could reduce five Republican-held House seats in response to Texas Republicans redrawing their districts for the 2026 elections.
- The proposed map aims to increase Democratic representation from 43 to 48 seats out of California's 52 congressional seats.
- Democrats across various states, including New York, are joining efforts to redraw maps to combat Republican gerrymandering, promising to retaliate with their own political maps.
- Democratic leaders across multiple states plan to undertake similar partisan redistricting efforts to counter Texas's approach or risk losing seats in Congress.
