Prior to redistricting by the California Citizens Redistricting Commission in 2011, the 15th wrapped around San Jose on the north and west, extending south to include much of Gilroy . That area is now split between the 17th , 18th , and 19th districts. The current 15th predominantly consists of portions of the former 13th , 11th , and 10th districts.
