Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) announced Thursday plans to order a special election in November for voters to decide whether to approve new congressional maps to redistrict California House seats in favor of Democrats.

The governor has vigorously embraced the party’s push to counter a GOP-friendly Texas gerrymander by buoying Democrats in blue states.

Newsom accuses President Trump of trying to rig the midterm election by redrawing congressional districts in Texas and other states to favor Republicans.
