California’s redistricting ballot measure, passed in November, could face a U.S. Supreme Court reversal, based on a recent ruling by the justices.
Last month, the Court ruled 6-3 in Louisiana v. Callais that congressional districts formed based on race are unconstitutional.
Californians passed Proposition 50 last fall, which seeks to add up to five additional Democratic seats in the state’s congressional delegation. It was sold as a means to counter Texas’s redistricting, where the legislature had redrawn its map to add up to five GOP seats.
