California Prop. 50, mid-decade partisan redistricting, passing

November 4, 2025

Gov. Gavin Newsom

By KAREN VELIE

California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s plan for mid-decade partisan redistricting is winning by a landslide. With 65% of the votes in, Proposition 50 is passing by 64.7% to 34.3%

In San Luis Obispo County the numbers are closer – 57.3% for Prop. 50 and 42.6% against. Currently, the county has counted early mail in votes and no polling place ballots.

Newsom argued Prop. 50 is a needed response to Republican promoted gerrymandering in Texas and other conservative states. The passage of Prop. 50 will allow Democrats to replace congressional lines drawn by the state’s independent commission with new ones in an attempt to switch five Republican seats to Democratic.

I guess the election was rigged: 64.7% to 54.3% = 119%.

Are these elections enough for the 30% of the US residents in denial realize 70% are fed up?

Can cult with blinders on keep humping Trumps leg for another 3 years?

Keep ignoring the obvious?

If you stand up-keep wearing your stupid ass red MAGA hats.

Because sooner than later dem candidates should start wearing blue MAGA hats,

NOW they quote Ronald Reagan.

It’s the only one he has. The other is a fake one he thinks Hillary Clinton said.

Who is they? Why do you choose to be so divisive? We’re all Americans and it shouldn’t be us verse them mentality. Your just feeding into the division politicians want you to instead of recognizing your fellow citizens as someone that can help hold politicians accountable. But all that requires is a little bit of thinking and understanding politics is a dirty, corrupt game. Im not sure your up to it based off the stupidity of your comments.

Where is a rolling-around-on-floor-puking-guts-out-from-laughter emoji when a person needs one?

NOW we hold hands and sing Kumbaya.

Only California residents voted on Prop 50. Not representative at all of the entire US population. Nice try though.


-7

Dominion voting machines helping the D’s hold onto power once again.

Even with the citizen commission, CA was still overrepresented by Ds. 43 vs 9.

Yes that’s it! You cracked it! Aren’t they the ones who were paid over 700 millions dollars by Fox News for saying the same lie?


10

Can’t get anything past you people. How did you find out?

Let the court cases begin, what are the odds for judicial stays while the many cases proceed and it takes until 2030 for just one case to go to the SC?


5

It’s going to be hard for SCOTUS to take up cases trying to overturn Prop 50 while ignoring what states like Texas have done. At lease California put it to a vote instead of doing it behind closed doors and without a vote. If all of it gets put on hold, I think us “libtards” are fine with it. The whole point was to counteract the blatantly un-Constitutional moves by the red states, so if nobody can do it we get to the same result.

It was the Biden doj that sued Texas, forcing them to redraw their map.


13

You people sure do get pushed around a lot by the big ol mean Democrats and that demented ol senile Biden.

Republicans were tired of Democrats fighting with one hand tied behind their back – they wanted to make it more fair by tying that other hand behind their back and it didn’t work. They might just have to fight in a fair fight now.

All those voter registration forms in welfare application packets pay off for Newsom. That includes illegals BTW.


-1

Billionaires don’t get a welfare packet – don’t even have to apply or stand in line.


5

Why would they if their billionaires lol? Billionaires do produce lots of jobs, products and everything else used in everyday lives.

You left out roofs.

All the people that voted for this nonsense must be rich and happy with the way our state and country have been treating those of us who work for a living, seniors, and families. This country isn’t about political parties, it is about “we the people.” But I guess “we” don’t matter to the group that has mansions and millions that “we” paid for, and continue to pay for. Talk about “kings”.


3

I’m sure all the people that work for a living that voted for this nonsense will be glad to hear that.


4

Hopefully this gets stopped in the courts. A kindergartner could take a quick look at the map and see that something is off.


Don’t give up on California. Keep recruiting your fellow Patriots and work to take it back.


12

Keep recruiting MAGAtards to fill billionaire pockets, to pay for new ballrooms, golf, private jets, date nights for Kash Patel.

Maga isn’t the insult you think it is however it is kind of stupid to have an issue with what billionaires do with money they earned theirselves.

I guess you’re probably right – them billionaires have EARNED everything they’ve got – like only having to cough up 2% of their income to Uncle Sam each year while you and I GET to dish out 25%-30%. And all we do is complain, us coal-miners, commercial fisherman, loggers, etc. while these billionaires have worked their fingers to the bone and some of them not even born on third base but on second or first !!! You’d think we’d be more grateful for all these goods and services they give us that we GET to pay them for !!! We owe them !!! Sometimes I don’t think they should have to pay taxes at all – I think WE should pay THEM for NOT paying taxes !!!

Common sense prevails! Lets put an end to Trumps tyranny; vote blue in 2026!

Newsom violated the state Constitution, with this illegal by-pass of the Citizens Redistricting Commission. Section 2 of Article XXI ONLY allows the Commission to alter district lines. This special election has no force of law. It will NOT pass judicial muster.


-1

As of today, we still have a Democracy and the people voted.


-1

No counter-argument, just downvotes. MAGA has nothing to offer most people (other than billionaires) except for “solutions” to problems that don’t exist.


-23

All the Ds talk about is hating Trump & stopping Trump. Nothing else, no platform, no policy. Trump will prevail. Just you wait.


15

You should listen to some of those victory speeches from last night then come back and tell us about platforms, policies, etc. Also, great 60 Minutes “interview”.


-6

President Newsom reporting for duty! Great job, Governor. It was a good day for Democrats!


-55

So you like your Sacramento King, but not the US president?

What the HELL kind of world history books YOU been reading?


-1

Two words: Fluck Newsom.


2

Good one! It’s like the other word, but it’s not.


11

Words of eloquence from the Fluck Your Feelings crowd.

Why because they won all the races in blue states? The over reaction celebration of democrats winning elections in blue states is absolutely insane. Ya’ll wanna blame Trump despite the fact hes never one in any of those states. Use a little bit of logic and you’ll understand dems are supposed to win their elections in blue states. Its the swing states they won’t win in and didn’t win in the last presidential election remember it was a clean sweep of Trump winning then all
