California Republicans sue over redistricting, allege constitutional violations

California Republicans have filed an emergency lawsuit with the state Supreme Court, arguing that Governor Gavin Newsom’s newly approved redistricting plan violates the California Constitution. The legal challenge centers on the bypassing of the 30-day public review period and the undermining of the state’s independent redistricting commission. The case comes ahead of a special statewide election on November 4, where voters will decide whether to adopt newly drawn maps that could flip congressional seats from Republican to Democrat. The move is seen as a direct response to recent redistricting efforts in Texas aimed at bolstering Republican control in Congress.
