One plan submitted by San Joaquin County farmers to Californias nonpartisan redistricting commission might make Harders district more Republican by stripping it of southern San Joaquin County commuter cities like Tracy.
San Joaquin County in that proposal would have its own congressional district, which likely would lean Democratic because it would contain Stockton, while Republicans likely would gain a Modesto-centered seat.
