California Gov. Gavin Newsom answers questions during a news conference, Sept, 26, 2023, in Sacramento, Calif. On Saturday, Oct. 7, Newsom vetoed legislation that would have required dozens of California’s largest cities, counties and educational districts to use citizens’ commissions …California Gov.
Newsom vetoed a pair bills Saturday that would have taken away redistricting power from elected officials in Los Angeles and dozens of other jurisdictions and instead given the responsibility to independent commissions of local residents. Boundaries for state and local legislative districts must be redrawn every 10 years to align with the latest U.S. census figures. Historically, that process has been carried out by elected officials who have a political interest in shaping districts to their advantage - a tactic known as gerrymandering.
But the city of Los Angeles is among many local governments that remain in charge of drawing their own districts. A panel of academic experts recommended this year that independent commissions composed of city residents be used for future redistricting of the Los Angeles City Council and school board.
