Proposition 50 gives Democrats opportunity to gain five seats, potentially offsetting Republican redistricting efforts in Texas and other states.

Californians are voting on a ballot initiative, "Proposition 50," to determine if the state will adopt a new congressional map that redraws five districts to be more Democratic-leaning, potentially allowing Democrats to flip them in the midterms.
