On Sunday night’s episode of his HBO show, John Oliver focused on the fight over redistricting that has been “raging” across the US as the midterms approach later this year.

California has voted in favor of Proposition 50, redrawing districts in a way that could cost Republicans five seats next year, while redistricting is also set to happen in Missouri and Louisiana.
