California voters passed Proposition 50 on Tuesday, in a major win for Governor Gavin Newsom and the Democrats.
Under the proposal, districts such as CA-01, CA-03, CA-22, CA-41 and CA-48 are set to shift by shedding conservative-leaning counties and absorbing more Democratic-leaning areas.
In a speech after the vote, Newsom said the passage delivered a powerful message to President Donald Trump, and hailed the result as a victory for "the principles our Founding Fathers lived and died for."
