Newsom’s backroom gerrymander gamble betrays voters and dismantles democracy
Fox News
California Governor Gavin Newsom faces criticism for proposing redistricting changes that would bypass the state's independent Citizens Redistricting Commission.
Senator Tony Strickland represents California Senate District 36, proudly representing the cities and communities of Los Angeles and Orange Counties, including Artesia, Buena Park, Cerritos, Cypress, Dana Point, Fountain Valley, Garden Grove, Hawaiian Gardens, Huntington Beach, Laguna Beach, La Palma, Los Alamitos, Newport Beach, Rossmoor, San Clemente, Seal Beach, Stanton, and Westminster.
Gavin Newsom wants to go against our Constitution. He drafted maps behind closed doors without community input, splitting counties 16 times and cities more than 100 times, again, without public hearings. The result will be no competitive districts in the state of California. Where voters today have a voice on who is elected, that will go away with Newsom’s redistricting scheme.
