Gavin Newsom wants to spend $200 MILLION of your tax dollars to rig congressional elections in California. And he's counting on you not paying attention.

Proposition 50 is on the ballot November 4th. If it passes, California throws out independent citizen-drawn district maps and replaces them with maps drawn by Democratic politicians in Sacramento—designed specifically to flip 5 Republican seats.

This is the same Gavin Newsom who claims to oppose gerrymandering. The same Democrats who sued states for partisan redistricting. Now they're doing it in California, and calling it "fighting back against Texas."

Here's what they don't want you to know:

→ California voters ALREADY REJECTED politician-drawn maps in 2010→ We created an independent Citizens Redistricting Commission specifically to stop this→ The new maps were drawn in ONE WEEK with ZERO public input→ They passed the legislature in a SINGLE DAY→ Prop 50 removes ALL constitutional protections against gerrymandering→ Even Arnold Schwarzenegger, who created the commission, says VOTE NO

The Yes campaign makes this about Trump. It's not. It's about Newsom and Sacramento Democrats rigging the system to guarantee they win more congressional seats.

In this episode:

  • I break down exactly what Prop 50 does
  • Show you which Republican seats they're targeting (and how)
  • Expose the Democratic hypocrisy
  • Explain why this costs $200 million during a budget crisis
  • Give you the facts to convince others to vote NO


This isn't partisan. This is about fair elections. California voters chose independent redistricting. Prop 50 betrays that choice.

Early voting is open NOW. If you're in California, vote NO on Prop 50.
