Santa Rosa really is the key for Northern California, because it's such a big population base,’ Assemblymember Chris Rogers said.

“Our proposed map was created using traditional redistricting criteria, consistent with guidelines laid out by the California’s Citizen Redistricting Commission,” according to a cover letter from Julie Merz of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee included with the map.

Maps made public Friday afternoon show how California Democrats hope to reconfigure the state’s 52 congressional districts. The plan targets five of California’s nine Republican members of Congress, and is designed to counteract the redistricting efforts in Texas that would favor Republicans.

This congressional redistricting fight in Texas could very well have a domino effect across the country. Governor Gregg Abbott is trying to make his friend President Trump happy by redrawing the maps to make it easier for Republicans to win five more seats in Congress and maintain control on Capitol Hill.

A spokesperson for Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas said their office is aiming to release possible redrawn maps on Friday.
