Prop 50 Approved In California, Opposed In Mother Lode
Proposition 50, a statewide Congressional redistricting measure, was approved in California with just under 64% of voters saying yes and slightly over 36% saying no.
Governor Gavin Newsom, who pushed the measure, proposed it to boost Democratic Congressional seats in response to redistricting actions in Texas to increase Republican seats.
In Tuolumne County, just over 60% voted no, and a little under 40% said yes. In Calaveras County, over 62% said no, and just under 38% said yes.
