Soros Fund Donates $10 Million to Newsom’s California Redistricting Fight

A George Soros-funded nonprofit gave $10 million to boost Governor Gavin Newsom’s bid to redraw California’s voting maps.

The Soros-linked Fund for Policy Reform donated $10 million to the ballot measure, according to a fundraising filing released Friday, making it the largest single backer of the Democratic governor’s effort to counter Texas’ redistricting moves. Californians will vote on the ballot initiative, Proposition 50, in November.
