Voters in California have approved Proposition 50, a ballot proposal to adopt a new congressional map that redraws five districts to be more Democratic-leaning, ABC News projects.

California voters approved Proposition 50 on Tuesday, Nov. 4, in a statewide special election that was announced less than three months prior. And in about a year, Californians will be back at the polls.

SACRAMENTO — Polling places throughout California open today for a special election that could help Democrats’ efforts to quell President Trump’s agenda but, if trends hold, most of the votes may have already been cast.

Beals also noted a polling location change in Newport News, Virginia, after a driver crashed their vehicle into a planned voting location at Ivy Farms Community of Faith Church over the weekend. The building was condemned, and the polling location was moved to South Morrison Family Education Center.

The measure is an attempt by Democrats to counteract Republican gerrymanders President Trump has sought in red states. If approved, it would change California’s congressional district boundaries to make it easier for Democrats to flip five seats now held by Republicans.

The state’s top elections official Tuesday asked the Trump administration to point to proof that any irregularities exist.

More than 6.6 million ballots have been returned so far in California’s special election for Proposition 50, according to a data firm used by political campaigns.

Proposition 50, a measure to temporarily change California's congressional districts, is being voted on by California voters on November 4th, and if passed, it would add five more Democratic seats to the House of Representatives.

The proposed redraw of the state’s Congressional districts is expected to add as many as five Democratic-held seats in Congress in time for the 2026 midterms, while leaving as few as four Republican-held seats across California.

The White House said its working on an executive order “to strengthen our elections in this country and to ensure there cannot be blatant fraud.”

Here’s what to know about voting in today’s election. The Justice Department plans to monitor polling sites in five counties in California, a move that will likely heighten tensions on Election Day and in the days afterward during the vote-counting process.
