REDISTRICTING.
INITIATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT AND STATUTE.
|
SUMMARY Put on the Ballot by Petition Signatures
Changes authority for establishing state office boundaries from elected representatives to commission. Establishes multilevel process to select commissioners from registered voter pool. Commission comprised of Democrats, Republicans, and representatives of neither party. Fiscal Impact: Potential increase in state redistricting costs once every ten years due to two entities performing redistricting. Any increase in costs probably would not be significant.
WHAT YOUR VOTE MEANS
YES A YES vote on this measure means: Boundaries for State Senate, Assembly, and Board of Equalization districts would be drawn by a new commission made up of California registered voters. Boundaries for U.S. House of Representatives districts would continue to be drawn by the Legislature.

|
NO A NO vote on this measure means: Boundaries for State Senate, Assembly, Board of Equalization, and U.S. House of Representatives districts would continue to be drawn by the Legislature. |
ARGUMENTS
PRO YES on 11 ends the conflict of interest of politicians drawing their own election districts. 11 means fair districts drawn by a citizens commission following clear rules and open to the public. It holds politicians accountable for solving problems like gas prices, healthcare, and education. Yes on 11—CHANGE Sacramento. |
|
CON Politicians paid millions to put Prop. 11 on the ballot to change the Constitution, create a costly new bureaucracy, and give the power of drawing districts to people who are never elected and never accountable to voters. Read it yourself. Preserve the power of your vote! Vote No!
