Voter-Approved Proposition Grants Power to Legislature
The measure, Proposition 50, received approval by voters Tuesday night, representing a decisive victory for Democrats. The plan temporarily gives the power to delineate congressional districts to the state's legislative body, enabling it to adopt maps that will help Democrats gain five congressional seats in the US House of Representatives.
