The plan would help Democrats flip five seats, offsetting the gains Republicans hope to make by redrawing maps in Texas.

California Democrats on Friday released their redistricting proposal, aiming to produce up to five additional Democratic seats in the US House in response to Texas Republicans’ mid-decade redrawing of lines at the behest of President Donald Trump.

Democrats are eyeing a map that could imperil five sitting Republican members, matching the number of seats the Texas GOP is seeking to eliminate.
