South Pas Voting Districts Are Changing: What's That Mean for You?
The California Citizens Redistricting Commission releases a draft plan with new state electoral districts on Friday. Here is what you need to know about South Pasadena and the new districts.
After two years of work, the 14-member California Redistricting Commission released draft plans for new congressional and state districts for the entire state on Friday.
The plans show new boundaries for California's 53 congressional districts, 40 state senate districts and 80 state assembly districts, as well as districts for the state Board of Equalization, which handles taxation issues.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR ME:
It means you could find yourself part of a new congressional or state district. And it means you could find yourself suddenly part of the majority (or minority) politically.
You can read more about the redistricting process, the commission, and the criteria used for the new districts in our article HERE. Maps of the new and old districts for South Pasadena are attached at right, and more information on the new districts is listed in the charts attached to this post. More information about the old Board of Equalization districts can be found here.
Check out the attached maps to see the new proposed districts for South Pasadena.
