US EditionTrump slams California redistricting vote, says votes under 'review'
- On Nov. 4, President Donald Trump said the redistricting vote and related mail-in ballots in California are under criminal review, amplifying claims of a rigged election on Truth Social.
- Because California uses an independent redistricting commission approved in 2008 and 2010, Democrats pushed the special election to adopt maps aimed at sending five more Democrats to Congress.

- California Secretary of State Shirley Weber said `The bottom line is California elections have been validated by the courts,` and California Attorney General Rob Bonta said the state will deploy its own observers to monitor federal election monitors.
- Whether Prop 50 passes will determine California's involvement in the national redistricting debate, as both Democrats and Republicans engage in gerrymandering ahead of midterm seat changes.
