Kevin McCarthy pledged to lead the fight against California’s redistricting but fell significantly short of his $100 million fundraising target.

Opponents of Proposition 50 spent just $31 million on ads compared to over $80 million by supporters, widening the spending gap.

Senior GOP leaders privately acknowledge the measure is likely to pass due to early missed opportunities and insufficient funding.

If approved, the redistricting will redraw five Republican-held districts to favor Democrats through the 2030 election cycle.

We are giving people something that can be done.
— California Rep. Pete Aguilar, the No. 3 House Democrat, discusses the motivation of voters regarding Proposition 50.

On October 3, Mace joined seven Republicans and nearly all Democrats in voting to remove McCarthy from leadership.

By a 216-210 vote, McCarthy became the first U.S. House speaker removed from office in history.

Mace cited broken promises involving women’s legislation and safer communities, saying her vote concerned trust rather than ideology.

The other five South Carolina Republicans backed McCarthy; the Washington Post reported allies considered expelling Mace from a roughly 40-member, mostly Republican group.

This isn’t about left vs right. This isn’t about ideology. This is about trust and keeping your word. This is about making Congress do its job.
— Nancy Mace wrote in a statement posted on social media shortly after casting her vote to remove McCarthy.

In the weeks preceding up to (and including) Jan. 6, Donald Trump and Republicans attempted and failed to steal an election.

Nearly two-thirds of Republican voters, for example, now believe in the Big Lie.

According to a FiveThirtyEight analysis, more than 70% of the 111 candidates Trump has endorsed for governor, federal office, attorney general, and secretary of state believe the 2020 election was rigged.

Mike Lee of Utah was yearning for "talking points" from Trump's chief of staff Mark Meadows to aid Trump in his failed coup attempt.
