On this Election Day in California, the spotlight was on a singular ballot measure: Proposition 50, known as Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Election Rigging Act. This controversial proposal seeks to override the maps meticulously crafted by the state constitution-mandated independent redistricting commission. Instead, it would introduce new maps, funded by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) and designed by a partisan figure, with the apparent aim of marginalizing Republican representation.

Despite polls closing only half an hour ago, and some voters still casting their ballots at various centers, the outcome has already been determined. The approval of this measure allows Newsom to claim a voter-sanctioned approach to gerrymandering, which could significantly weaken the presence of Republicans in California’s congressional delegation.

Gov. Newsom advocated for this initiative as a counteraction to what he perceived as a strategic maneuver by former President Donald Trump. Initially, he suggested the measure would only be activated if Texas proceeded with its own redistricting efforts. However, he quickly abandoned this pretense, as the deadline to place it on the ballot loomed before Texas lawmakers made any decisions.

In moving forward with this agenda, Newsom and his supporters seemed to overlook a crucial detail: Texas was compelled to revise some of its districts following litigation initiated by the US Department of Justice during President Biden’s administration.

Of course, Newsom and his lackeys ignored the fact that Texas had to change some of its districts as a result of litigation brought by the US Department of Justice during the Biden administration.

Before Newsom got the proposition on the ballot, Republicans like former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy, and money man Charles Munger Jr. said they would bring the fight to Newsom with hundreds of millions of dollars to flood the state with ads and get-out-the-vote efforts, but much of that failed to materialize, with Schwarzenegger spending a big chunk of his time during the campaign in Europe and never coming out to stump for the No on 50 campaign:

But California’s most popular Republican — and the last to have any real relevance in state politics — did little to make that case to voters. Instead of barnstorming the state in opposition to the measure on Tuesday’s ballot, Schwarzenegger spent a key stretch this fall cavorting across Europe, leading a life that one adviser likened to that of “a real-life Forrest Gump.”

Republicans remained disheartened by the constant election integrity issues in the state, including transparent ballot return envelopes in some counties and holes in the ballot return envelope that could reveal how a person voted. Many who said they were going to vote said they were going to do so in person, but as of Election Day that hadn’t materialized (in-person voting in most California counties starts 10 days before Election Day). As California Republican Party delegate Elizabeth Barcohana said on Monday night:

It is the night before Election Day 

4 Million California Republicans still haven’t voted

Those 4 Million voters alone could have beaten the 3.3 Million Democrats who voted so far, but they surrendered. We don’t have a numbers or cheating problem. We have a laziness problem.

Democrat turnout took off on October 18th, while Republican and Independent turnout stayed shallow, almost flat, even after in person voting started on the 25th.

The story’s not over, though. President Trump said Tuesday that mail-in ballots in the state are “under very serious legal and criminal review.”
