Gov. Gavin Newsom’s victory in California’s election fight over U.S. House control will help raise his national profile as a Democrat willing to confront President Donald Trump.

Gov. Gavin Newsom wasted no time Thursday night using his landslide Proposition 50 win to assail President Donald Trump, describing the partisan redistricting measure as a rebuke to Trump’s efforts to undermine democracy.

The Democratic victory marks a concrete rebuttal to the president’s political agenda less than a year into his second term.

Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom has scored a victory against Donald Trump, with California voters approving a ballot measure allowing his state to change congressional maps ahead of next year’s midterm elections.
