November 4, California voters will decide If the state is to temporarily accept a new democratic electoral card to combat such initiatives in the Republican countries or if you decide to retire. Next, a redistribution of the regions exploded that the proposal 50 is not the responsible government model that the Californians deserve. Opinion: Another regulatory redistribution of areas He claims that this is a lack of vision that Californians only think of California right now.
In 2008, the Voting Act for the first time established the Civil Committee to redistribute the California regions, an independent body composed of people who reflect the diversity of the state. Good governance groups have encouraged the election initiative, striving to ensure that voters are indicated on behalf of the law, a priority. Two years later, I was part of the first committee.
The approval of voters of an independent committee ended the guerrilla manipulation that characterized Redistribution of California areas For decades.
Commission members have dedicated almost a year To make new cards Which allowed citizens to have access to more than 100 public meetings and different ways to send comments in writing. Voters were able to describe their communities and determine their infrastructure and economy. This gave the Commission a review of California and helped to create areas that offer voters a fair opportunity to choose responsible representatives.
The California Commission is now considered a gold standard for redistribution of areas in the United States, without guerrilla interests and is fully carried out in view of the public.
We hope that Texas has learned from California. There, Legislators accepted new cards In August, in an attempt to manipulate the election in 2026 in favor of Republicans to Cases of President Donald Trump S Their actions represent the most abundant motivations of politicians who are so afraid to lose power that they think only of infidelity.
His determination to manipulate the capabilities of the congress has encouraged governor Gavin Newo Applying the redistribution of constituencies in the middle of the electoral cycle in California To choose more Democrats. He is now in the hands of the voters in special elections on November 4. Proposal 50 will replace the cards prepared by the state independent committee with Areas designated by legislators only to obtain or protect the democratic seats. And this protection will extend through three electoral cycles.
This is not exactly a temporary change.
As a registered Democrat, he would celebrate the replacement of Congress members who have forgotten their oath to serve their voters and protect the Constitution. But this cannot be at the cost of the California Constitution, nor of its voters, who demanded fair and impartial areas.
Newsom said the action of the Texas Republicans justifies an attack with revenge S But every day we witness the chaos and distrust generated by revenge policy in Washington. This is not the responsible government model that the Californians deserve. Californians don’t want to spend Millions of dollars of taxpayers In the commitment that different areas of congress will lead to the desired change, while real problems are still unresolved.
No one knows the magical amount of democratic places needed to win this election war, especially when more Republican countries join the competition, in addition to Texas. Has the governing governed to lose the titles in more competitive California regions? Will the failure accept if the Democrats do not fall throughout the country?
This is not an unprecedented moment. We saw the guerrilla manipulation of the constituency suppresses the solution of voters, undermines confidence and nourishes cynicism. We know that once they receive power, politicians will fight to preserve it with the confidence that the crisis statement is the only excuse they need.
NEWSOM must look for a different response to the war to redistribution of the districts.
Representative Kevin Kili, for example, suggested legislation to prohibit the redistribution of areas in mid -December across the country S Until now, I do not know what he took to Kili, a Republican of the District of Pleasure. Maybe this was an instinct for survival before the threat of lose your place S But given a national solution to a national problem would be an initiative for welcome.
NEWSOM states that Democrats can restore Congress if the US people have a honest opportunity, voice and opportunity. In California, people already have this opportunity and this is the independent committee for the redistribution of areas.
Californians can send a clear message to Newsom and legislative leaders on November 4 to respect people’s will and not sacrifice the independent committee on the redistribution of regions, nor the limited financial resources of the state, through short -term political profits.
