A Republican attempt to redraw electoral boundaries in Texas has caused a dispute between the two major political parties with the state now calling on the FBI to rein in Democrats who fled the state in protest.

More than 50 Democrats left the state in protest on Aug. 3, mostly to Illinois, New York, and Massachusetts, over plans to pass a redistricting vote that would favor Republicans.
